Good morning and happy Friday!
Hope you are well as we head towards Spring! I'm still going through the pictures from our recent cruise. (So many photos!) I also have a lot of video I need to upload too. Do you follow us on YouTube? youtu.be/2sMBI2bRY3U?si=XLYmZv-z6xINrcAo The food was of course, great on the ship. My son reported this desert was one of his favourites. Plus, enjoying on it from our balcony made it all the sweeter. #WIN Have a great weekend!

1st Review of 2024~
Quick Book Review - Thursday Edition: The Shape Shifter by Tony Hillerman
The book is another great Hillerman mystery set in the southwest. The story is well written and there is enough story telling points to make you feel you are riding along with the Legendary Lt. This book is part of a series, but you don't have to start at 1 and read forward. (Although if you enjoy a good story you may want to.) This book begins with retried Navajo Tribal Police, Joe Leaphorn looking into a cold case and takes off in a big and strange way. Hey fellow book lovers! As we begin a new year, I wanted to take a moment to look back on my reading journey in 2023. Last year, I set a goal on www.goodreads.com to read 45 books, and I ended up beating it with a total of 47. In this post, I'll give you a quick rundown of the challenge, share my book list, and link you to some short but concise reviews. A Mix of Reads: If you have been following me awhile you know I read a mixed bag of stuff. This year was no different as I delved into various genres – thrillers, memoirs, and everything in between. If you're on the lookout for some quick reviews or want to know more about specific books, here are the links to a few of my favorites: I read for work, pleasure, to learn and also to escape boredom. How about you? That being said, it can be mad to find new titles that are actually fun to read. Thats why I like the Goodreads community. These are real people reading for fun (not because they are selling something or paid to write reviews). So if you want to connect with some bookish folks, swapped recommendations, and participated in discussions (or not) then join us. If you're into that, hit me up on Goodreads its here: www.goodreads.com and I'm Msoneworld4me there as well. As I gear up for another year of reading, I'm grateful for the good reads (pun intended) of the past year. The challenge was just a number, but the real reward was finding some enjoyable stories. If you've got reading goals or just want to share your latest read, drop a comment below. Here's to more pages turned in 2024! Happy reading! While I typically don't watch much TV, Netflix, or YouTube, taking on this 7-day detox highlighted the significant amount of extra time I actually have. *Who knew??
Shifting my focus from screens to books, I read 7 books in as many days. While I am passionate about reading, I think this detox added a fresh perspective to my reading journey by giving me more time overall to read. Normally I read before bed and or on my days off - so this really highlighted how 2 hours on YouTube/TV really is a time sux. Now, I'm curious – have you ever tried a digital detox? How did it impact your daily routine and habits? Share your thoughts below, and let's celebrate the magic of reading together! ✨
OVERVIEW: Tony Hillerman was the former president of the Mystery Writers of America for a reason.. he writes a good story. I effortlessly fell into this mystery and learned more about the Navajos people and the high desert life of New Mexico. Looking forward to reading the entire inspired series of books. My Last Minute Thoughts:
Peace Talks - Dresden Files Book 16
I am currently loving this series. I was told for years to read it, but never found the time. There is one disclosure, you should start at the beginning to understand our hero Harry's journey. BUT the 1st 2 books are ripe with mimogyn and aren't that inspiring. BUT trust me they do get MUCH better and it is worth it to see Harry grow. My Last Minute Thoughts:
Hey there,
Have you ever had trouble finding the perfect dairy alternative for your coffee or tea? I know I have! For the longest time, I was convinced that oat milk just wasn't for me. But recently, I discovered a game-changing oat milk that I can't get enough of! As a coffee creamer, I much preferred cashew milk over oat milk. But then I tried Califia Farms' extra creamy oat milk at a friend's house and I was blown away! It was smooth, creamy, and added the perfect touch to my tea. I had to admit, I was wrong about oat milk all along! Now I'm hooked on this extra creamy oat milk and I buy it weekly. It's a great option for those looking for a healthy dairy alternative that still provides the creaminess and richness of traditional milk. Plus, it's packed with essential nutrients like calcium and vitamin D. I was going to call this post "My Oatmilk Journey," but that seemed a bit dramatic. Still, I wanted to share my newfound love for this delicious oat milk with you. Trust me, if you're looking for a creamy and delicious dairy alternative, this one is definitely worth trying. So go ahead, give Califia Farms' extra creamy oat milk a try and let me know what you think! Have a great day! #OatMilk #CalifiaFarms #Extra PS: NOT sponsored Lasher - Mayfair Witches Boon 2
I remember reading this series a long time ago. It left you wanting to know more or to understand what was happening to these poor cursed people. Read the Mayfair series to fully undertsand the story. My Last Minute Thoughts:
