Books, Writing, & The Cozy Life
Hello, friends. Welcome to another Friday! Earlier this week I stood by the back door and watched the leaves drift down to the ground, coffee in hand. We have two locust trees in the backyard and we've noticed that they are always the first to drop their leaves at our house, so it's a preview... Continue Reading →
Good morning, friends. The week is flying by for me; maybe for you, too? We've landed into our school routine pretty well and we're all relatively happy now that we know what to expect every day.

I'm sure many of you are feeling the same way this morning: the weekend went by too darn fast! I have to say that I didn't manage to read at all thanks to my three children. And that's okay because we stayed quite busy in all the best ways. Today's post has a few pictures... Continue Reading →

I hope you're also seeing signs of the changing season wherever you are because we... Continue Reading →
Happy Wednesday! This week has been wonderfully fall-like with rain all day on Monday and Tuesday. The rain has cleared out but the forecasted high is in the mid-70s. That's just about perfection! I haven't been able to squeeze in too much reading time since we chatted on Wednesday. Typically my late evenings are spent... Continue Reading →
Despite my recent love letter to August, I am very happy to flip past it on my calendar. There were some wonderful moments in the garden and with family and friends, and still - you know me. I'm ready for fall and the cozy season. I'm especially ready to turn my attention towards activities in... Continue Reading →
Can we take a moment to say hello to September? Hello, September! You all know that I'm ready for fall and am over the moon about this new month. This week saw a sudden shift in the weather - Monday and Tuesday were in the 90s and yesterday's high was 73! I'm not sure how... Continue Reading →

Today's post is predictable: I'm sharing what I've read since last Wednesday and my goodness, it's an eclectic bunch of books. I... Continue Reading →
