As I look back over August, it was a good month! I had a lot of favorites as summer was winding down and fall started to creep in with the changing of the leaves on a few trees and school starting.

I enjoy sleeping in a little bit … Read More

Anyway, before we get ahead of ourselves, let me share some of my favorite things from April… Les Misérables on Masterpiece I’m pretty eager to like just about … Read More
