My Sunday-Monday Post

On By Erin @ Cracker Crumb LifeIn Uncategorized

 

First, my heart is breaking for all of those suffering in the fires. I just cry over the news these days, as I am sure many of you do as well. I am planning on becoming more of an activist for our environment – I have always done what I could, I’m a vegetarian, recycle, use sustainable goods when I can, but I can be much better and much more active.

We celebrated my birthday yesterday, and it was just a small little family dinner out, which was nice. Today we went to the Detroit Institute of Arts with my brother and his family, which was great. Wyatt seemed to enjoy it, until naptime came and went and we were still there. Then he got a bit cranky… Tomorrow morning Billy and I are having a date morning, and going for a hike while Wyatt hangs out with his grandma at home. I am looking forward to an invigorating walk in the woods, to clear my head and and relax!

Read Last Week:

I finished up Virgil Wander – hands down one of my favorite books of the year. Absolutely loved it. And now,  I definitely want to fly a kite at night in the middle in the snow.

I also read Snowlicious, a short and sweet little romance. It was a great read to follow up my two more serious books! Quick and easy and fun. And snow! Review this week.

And finally, The Glorious Life of the Oak by my favorite nature writer John Lewis-Stempel. I ordered this book and had to wait two weeks or so for it to come in from England. I was so excited to read it, and I loved it! Another short and quick read, all about, well, the life of the Oak. Lol. I found it pretty interesting! I had planned to read Heart Berries, which sounds amazing, but also heartbreaking. I couldn’t deal with more sad this week, so I skipped it for now. I will go back to it because it does look really good.

Reading This Week:

house of dreams

I am starting this book about L.M. Montgomery this week – as well as trying to read Anne of Green Gables again. I think I am more in the mood for it than I was last time.

Watching:

Riverdale, Reign, YouTube junk and that is about it. Not much tv happening over here.

How about all of you? What is happening in your corner of the world?

    1. Thanks!

      I’ve been a vegetarian since college (not vegan though, I love cheese too!) but my husband and son are not. My son actually loves meat! Lol. There are so many great recipes and resources for vegetarians now too, it is easier than when I started. 🙂

    Happy birthday! I’m not as enthused about snow as you seem to be, I’m a fair-weather driver and this current snow, light and fluffy as it is, is keeping me from my exercise class. Come see my week here. Happy reading!

    1. Lol! I am one of those weirdos who loves snow. Until about mid February, then I am done. Maybe beginning, depending on how much we have gotten. 🙂 It does make it more difficult to drive in though, which never bothered me until I started driving around with a preschooler in the back.
