Welcome back to Wednesday Links! We are rushing right up to Thanksgiving. I think my partner and I are going to do an “all sides” Thanksgiving again. It was so much fun last year eating mashed potatoes and stuffing and green beans. My partner was diagnosed with Celiac Disease in January, so if you have any good gluten-free Thanksgiving dishes, please let me know! … Laura sent a couple related links in!

Welcome back to Wednesday Links! How is everyone?! Big news for me, as of Monday, I’m engaged! It’s very exciting. I’m recording the next RT Rewind with Sarah tomorrow and I’m sure I’ll talk all about that. There has been lots of champagne consumption since then and there’s something so particular about a champagne hangover headache, as my now fiancé has learned. I want to thank you all for your exercise suggestions. I know a … Continue reading Links: More Romance Bookstores, Knitting, & More

Welcome back to Links! I very much enjoyed the collective snarking in the comments last week. I love it when a community comes together! For those in the States, I hope you had a pleasant Labor Day weekend. For us, it was mostly a weekend of rotting, jut hanging and vegging out at home. How did you spend your weekend? We’re starting to feel a hint of fall in New England and I am so … Continue reading Links: Cover Songs, Cover Models, & More

Welcome back to links! How are we all doing? My brother and his wife finally landed back in the States for his new assignment and his wife is speedrunning American franchises. She loves trying out American chains. The biggest hit for her so far has been In-N-Out Burger and she’s discovered she’s not a fan of refried beans. As a reminder, she is Korean and my brother was stationed there for a while. She also … Continue reading Links: Slime, Meet Cute Bookshop, & More

A Map of Romance Bookstores

Featured image for A Map of Romance Bookstores

Big thanks to Heather S. for this wonderful idea that we whipped up in a frenzy! Way back when, we used to have a Google Maps of “romance-friendly” bookstores, but now there are quite a number of romance-specific bookstores popping up. I was only able to find US and Canada-based bookstores. This also doesn’t have any of the wonderful pop-up or mobile romance shops out there. If we missed any in your area, please let … Continue reading A Map of Romance Bookstores

Hello, everyone! It’s Wednesday Links time and this edition is brought to you by readers like you! Seriously, most of today’s links came in by submission from the community. Keep ’em coming! It’s mid-May and my allergies have made an appearance. So far, they aren’t as bad as previous years, but dry eyes are a new symptom and while my meds are working, I hate that stuffy head feeling. … Ellen sent this one – … Continue reading Links: Wonderful Community Submissions

Hello, everyone! I am officially back in the States! Thank you for all the birthday wishes and if you wish to see some of my adventures, feel free to look at my Instagram. The trip was wonderful and full of delicious food. I will also have to return to South Korea in about a month because my baby brother (yes, he is 30 but will always be “baby brother”) is getting married! Very excited, but since … Continue reading Links: Maps, Sci-Fi, & More

Welcome back to Wednesday Links! The Boston spring has devolved back into a Boston winter this week. Typical! I don’t really mind the cold so much; it’s the wind. The wind is so brutal sometimes. My partner recently made a Trader Joe’s run and TJs is so good for fun and interesting snacks. But I have a gripe. They’re so popular and I get very overwhelmed and overstimulated in crowded areas. I want to browse, … Continue reading Links: Public Library Awesomeness, Fic Organizing, & More

Links: I Know the Holidays Are Over

Workspace with computer, journal, books, coffee, and glasses.

Welcome back to Wednesday Links! I had my Romance Novel + Cheese Night on Friday and it went really well! Keep your eyes peeled for a write-up soon on how it went and what the yummy pairings were. I’m still a little sick so my partner and I definitely put a pause on any Valentine’s Day celebrations. We even had a fancy dinner reservations planned, which we wound up cancelling in favor of eating chips … Continue reading Links: I Know the Holidays Are Over

It’s our last Links of 2023! Next week, we’ll be taking a break from content to run our Best Of lists, from posts to reviews to Cover Snark. I want to take a moment to reflect on these posts. When I started doing them, it was just a way to show off some cool or interesting things from around the internet. And it still is! However, I love that it’s also morphed into a little … Continue reading Links: Libraries, Baking, & More

Welcome back to Links! I definitely think this is one of the weirder titles I’ve picked. I went to Patriots game on Sunday and boy, was it miserable. I’m talking both the weather and the actual gameplay. Sadly, we bought the tickets during the preseason. In other news, I also think I’m done with my holiday shopping. Weirdly, my mom needs everyone’s lists by mid-October but then doesn’t do any shopping until late November or … Continue reading Links: Etymology, Mrs. Roper, & More
