It’s the seventh night of Hanukkah! We are almost done! And yeah, by this point, the foil-lined cookie sheets upon which the family menorot rest is very splattered and I’m glad I took the time to prep it.

For our seventh night … Continue reading Hanukkah 2023 Night 7: Kate Spade Lucy Green Glitter Wristlet!
RECOMMENDED: The Sugar Queen by Sarah Addison Allen is $1.99! I’ve talked about my love for Sarah Addison Allen before. Her books are literary fiction with magical realism and they’re such perfect comfort reads. I like Garden Spells (her debut) better, but this was still a good read.
This HaBO is from Elizabeth, who wants to find this romance: I need help finding this old Harlequin romance from the late 90s: The main female character’s name was Nikki and she was an olfactory scientist performing research on how the brain reacted to various scents, similar to how pigs find truffles in the woods. She was specifically trying to research if voles, or hamsters, could make bonds through scents. She sets up an experiment … Continue reading HaBO: Olfactory Scientist
It’s the sixth night of Hanukkah! The candles are getting nice and warm as a potential heat source, and there’s probably some latkes to be noshed upon, yes? Of course! I make two kinds of latkes each year: the Serious Eats old fashioned latke recipe where you squeeze the potato starch out of the shreds into a bowl, and the spicy sweet potato latkes I adapted from Taste of Home magazine. I don’t love latkes … Continue reading Hanukkah 2023 Night 6: Kate Spade Lucy Pink Wristlet!
Jana Goes Wild by Farah Heron is $3.99! This is Heron’s latest and was recommended on Hide Your Wallet. I remember Sarah being curious about the setting. Have any of you read this one?
Welcome back to Cover Snark! Elyse: Dick in a U Sneezy: Never thought about cupping done on a dick until now. Sarah: Also the type treatment makes it look like FUX We could do an entire page of cover art where an ab-tastic dude is lifting his shirt and looking for something and still never know what it is they are looking for. Elyse: Not to be confused with Megatron Amanda: Is Zuck getting into … Continue reading Cover Snark: Barbie Bendy Legs

This time, we have baking projects for cat lovers, an anthology all about romances, a book from one of my favorite literary fiction authors, and a comic about love. Quite the assortment! Have you received any great book recs lately? Feel free to share in the comments!
It’s the fourth night of Hanukkah, and we are halfway through! I will tell you that in my household, some people who are not me count out the different candles to make sure that the colors are used equally and in a growing pattern. It’s very nerdy. And fun. First, my Hanukkah wishes for you tonight: may the people around you always make you feel safe and warm and especially so if they brought snacks. … Continue reading Hanukkah 2023 Night 4: Kate Spade Madison Card Holder!
