#DashingThruDecember #Silver I cannot remember a time when this cookbook wasn‘t in my moms kitchen. The silver Jubilee edition of the Super Market Cookbook . A few years ago she passed it on to me . Happy New Year‘s Eve everyone! 70 year old cookbook 😱
#12BooksOf2025 June. This is number 9 in the Will Trent series, Slaughter never disappoints, crime writing at it‘s finest,never for the faint of heart!
#12BooksOf2025 May just wow, Friedrich would be considered a conservative and an aristocrat but his diary is spot on about the evil, stupidity, and cruelty of the rise of the Third Reich. His diary starts in 1936. It was called “One of the most important documents of the Hitler period “ by Hannah Arendt , the New York Review of Books has this lovely edition. One of my top of the year!
#WhartonBuddyRead #ChunksterJunior Got this brick out of the library today hoping to join in the fun !
#12BooksOf2025 April Hey , don‘t get me wrong it was a good thriller. Sloane becomes a nanny for a well off family when she pretends she is a nurse ,yet come to find out this family that looks ideal on the outside have their own dark secrets. I usually read nearly 100 books a year , unfortunately, just managed a bit over 40 . This was my only completed book that month! 😄
#12Of2025 March This book was so good it actually surprised me ! It‘s hard this month, I feel it‘s almost a tie . I enjoyed The Woman In White which was a buddy read with the #HashTagBrigade hosted by @BarkingMadRead
#12BooksOf2025 February. A combination of a small town saga & a mystery as the richest man in town is found dead . It‘s 1958 as Sheriff Dern investigates, family secrets, racism, and WWII trauma are unleashed in the process.
#12Booksof2025 I wanna play ! January book. Sofie , an intern at a Stockholm publishing house catches the interest of a senior editor, Gunnar because they shared similar insights and passions for books . The book focuses on the dynamics that always comes into play , is publishing more about art or commerce? I found it quietly fascinating. Sofie is on her way up , the more commercial staff think maybe Gunnar‘s time of relevance has past.
I love Waj on The Left Hook , I often watch on YouTube, his book is great so far , reading a few pages here and there on this Christmas Day /Night. Hope all who celebrate had a good one . 🎄
I‘m just kinda over #BOTM I‘m such an eclectic reader, a mood reader, most of the books aren‘t really my cup of tea .Well , then I will read a great one ….😁
Long story short, I‘ve cancelled & will be using up the credits .
So you go to Michael‘s and you find something on sale you didn‘t know you needed!😁Happy Eve everybody!

Sarah Litton , Jeffrey‘s widow & Will Trent must go back to investigate putting their somewhat fragile relationship to a test & dredging up dark memories from the past.
#DashingThruDecember #HolidayFilm an all time favorite! “The wind..it‘s what makes it so warm this time of year.Legend has it that, when the Santa Anas blow,anything can happen.” -Miles
Seen at a Thrift store! Don‘t I wish !😁
pickA review 2 years in the making!😁I ran right out & bought it 11/23 ,I started flying through the early years & then stalled .I probably should have done audio, 900 pages,heavy ! Anyway, DONE.I did enjoy it , her perfectionist bent had me believing she still would go back & improve everything she‘s ever done! She has committed to many causes over the years , especially women‘s health, and the environment. And that voice, it will always my favorite
Basically on the economic boycott especially regarding big corporations! Had to breakdown and support my local Indie , Changing Hands on small business Saturday though I actually picked Sunday. This looks so interesting!
#Sunrise urban Phoenix! The traffic patterns change the day before Thanksgiving, some still have to go to work ,some have been off all week, some will be gathering some last minute food items , some will be picking up whole meals , some will even wait till tomorrow! 😃🦃Whatever you are doing here in the US , Happy Thanksgiving Eve !
#majicmonday thanks for the tag @Eggs
1.Procrastination, the key is not working at it !
2. Organizing collections, books ,records, CDs whatever. I have less patience for it now.
3.wasting time ! Came to me naturally, see number 1.
Late to the party, everyone can play !
This is what happens when you have a B&N gift card!
No regrets ! 😹
#ARichLife #Tradition #Family I suppose I could type up the holiday recipes I use from these cookbooks, print up a little booklet . I have Thanksgiving recipes flagged in these various books and magazines, but I really enjoy browsing them again . Sophie and my socks, no extra charge! 😁 #CatsOfLitsy
#catsofLitsy morning coffee with Sophie on a stack of antique Arizona Highways magazines!
pickto think I would finish it today.The survivors PSA ,the survivors news conference,the vote.What a difficult & necessary read.Virginia needed to tell her side of the story,I‘m sure she felt its power, but also felt so much darkness remembering so much trauma.That rich & powerful people count on exploiting the young &
vulnerable ,with a sneer say who will they believe ,me or you ? I see her brother standing in her place , making sure she is heard .
#ARichLife #Pie There is something so cool about vintage pamphlet style cookbooks! This one is from 1957 .
#ARichLife #Spice 2 sweet little vintage spice containers I found not so long ago in a thrift store! Wish there had been more of them !
#ARichLife #HomeCooking One of the favorite cookbooks in the collection! A coast to coast tour of home cooking, across many decades of favorites! Virginia Ham, San Francisco Sourdough, New England Clam Chowder ………
pickAn important book that is going to stay in my library. I could rant all day about this one. I had to step away from this one sometimes. I knew it was bad , I didn‘t know it was this bad 😬😡😞
#sundayfunday The one that popped into my head was the friendship of John Wheelright and Owen Meany in this special book. Owen was small with an unusual voice , made fun of more often than making friends .
Thanks for the tag @Eggs ! Love your choice too !
#ARichLife #Saint St. Francis was my mom‘s favorite, she loved animals, he loved animals, it just makes sense! The other thing that crossed my mind was Bruce Springsteens song “ It‘s Hard To Be A Saint In The City “
#ARichLife #Earthy a memoir in my bookcase as yet unread !
Still working on these , have I had any time to read this weekend so far ? No I have not 🙁
Hope your Halloween is great, Littens !
All treats , no tricks .
pickHarris pours out on every page the trials,tribulations, & occasional triumphs of running the shortest presidential campaign in history.I wish the results had been different. We are losing democracy and all the victories for justice, inclusion,and, the chance for a decent life folks .
Just cuz I wanted to post something cool on Friday! 1951 edition , everyone loves a map or a foldout!
How many bricks do I need on my nightstand? Saw an interesting interview with Sorkin on The Lincoln Project w/ Rick Wilson on https://youtu.be/I6rk9KgEEl8?si=ntM_6OPSCHTNupig YouTube. Another thing to worry about.
#HauntsAndHexes Do horror movies make you #Scream ? This book might be for you ! Saw it at my local indie, didn‘t take a peek inside, made me laugh because I have a good friend that this describes perfectly.
How I spent Saturday night ! A night of laughter though I found walking through the casino like being on the inside of a pinball machine! He was awesome!
It‘s here ! I preordered Rocky‘s book . I love his videos about helping shelter dogs. Heartfelt thanks to volunteers and donors to all the shelters, giving animals a chance to find a loving home .
