Books, Writing, & The Cozy Life
Happy Friday, friends. The sky is bright blue, the last few leaves are rattling on the maple tree in our front yard, and I have Colin Powell's funeral on in the background (the military band is currently playing ABBA as I type this - I love it!). The kids are playing and I'm stealing a... Continue Reading →
I am gutted that we've already reached the last Friday of October. This was such a hard month for us, but I'm happy to report that we've had some major successes this week that have given me a tremendous amount of hope. So things are looking up around here! And I have a lot of... Continue Reading →
Happy Friday! I hope the week treated you well. We're still struggling with a virus running through the house, so this was another rough week here at The Cozy Burrow.

Welp. It sure was another week, wasn't it? I kept things simple: we had the week off from school and I didn't put any pressure on us to do anything other than play, which made all the difference in the world given the state of things in the world. Today's post will also be super... Continue Reading →
It's time for another Unraveled Wednesday with Kat! This week I'm sharing an update on my Spark Cardigan and three more finished books. My lovely second Spark Cardigan is coming along quite nicely. I finished the short rows of the collar last week and am busy working on the whole shawl collar now. I'm not... Continue Reading →
