Hi.

Welcome to my blog. I document my latest reads, adventures in travel, and food. Hope you have a nice stay!

Happy Saturday! We are still stuck at home since the roads are coated in ice and the current wind chill is -28°. Right now I’m getting a bit cranky and stir crazy, and I need to get out because we need groceries (grocery store is 62 miles away)! I’m guessing I’ll just have to bake off my crankiness in the kitchen and on the dreadmill today. See below for what I’m cooking and baking today!

I was supposed to have started 𝗧𝗼𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗿𝗼𝘄 𝟯𝘅 yesterday with @jennyw_reads and @mamas_top_shelf but I ended up watching basketball and being flat out lazy instead…And thank you Purdue for destroying what little bit of hope I had left with my bracket 🤦‍♀️

So, today I need to get my butt in gear and play catch-up.

I started the 𝗗𝗮𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗡𝗮𝗻𝘁𝘂𝗰𝗸𝗲𝘁 a few days ago. I’m only in the beginning but the writing really draws you right into the lives of each of the characters and everything they are going through.

𝗦𝘆𝗻𝗼𝗽𝘀𝗶𝘀: Set against Nantucket’s Great Fire of 1846, this sweeping, emotional novel brings together three courageous women battling to save everything they hold dear…

AOTD: I like mine so baggy that I’m basically swimming in them.

I have several limes that need used up so I’m going to give this Lime Loaf Cake a try, but I’m making muffins instead of the loaf.

For my dinner tonight I’m making 20 Minute Garlic Oil Schezwan Peanut Noodles and adding in tofu.
