I feel like I say this every month, but February was filled with incredible books! Months like this one make me beyond grateful that I ditched the “planning” aspect of reading by picking books ahead of time — there are several books from this month that I stumbled across and ending up loving.

This week, I’m loving… Lidl I finally dropped by Lidl this week and I can’t believe what I’ve been missing! They have so many organic and gluten free options for half the price — I literally cut our grocery bill in half. I can’t wait to explore it more in the coming weeks!

I had a lot of fun walking down memory lane today for a grad school assignment. I was asked to give a “short autobiographical history” of my reading/writing experiences. If you know me, you know that “short” does not really fit in with the rest of that prompt… but I thought I would share here […]
