Welcome back! We’re in October! I honestly keep thinking I’m in September because the month ended so quickly and I feel like I’m trying to catch up. One thing I’ve diving deep into is really good slow cooker meals or meals that freeze really well. We plan to try and stock our freezer with things that can be easily reheated (especially during a New England winter) while we deal with a brand new human.

The Rec League: Non-Romance, Page Turners

This request was asked by SBTB Tara on behalf of a friend: I need a book recommendation for a friend. It needs to be a page turner, but it can’t have romance. It also can’t demand a lot of cognitive load. Her husband is in the ICU and wants to sink into something without using her brain. I should mention that she’s already read everything by Becky Chambers and the whole Murderbot series. Amanda: I … Continue reading The Rec League: Non-Romance, Page Turners →
