What I'm reading this week:

I love the Ellie Haskell books, and am slowly re-reading the series - this is the third book.  

What I'm listening to this week:

Rhyme of the Magpie is another re-read for me, but this time via Audible.  The narration is quite good, and I'm enjoying my return visit to Smeaton-under-Lyme.

What I'm watching this week:

I haven't started this yet, but it's next in the queue and I'm thrilled that there's been a resurgence of interest in producing Agatha Christie films, but wonder how many times things can be re-done.....

What's happening in the kitchen this week:

                                                 I'm trying a new bread recipe - 
                                    I've added flax seed and oatmeal.

Cooking down beautiful fresh tomatoes to freeze for the winter.

It's back to work this week - and I'm bringing muffins for the staff's first day.

What's Charlie the beagle up to???

My little buckaroo had to have 5 teeth extracted this week.  He was a real trooper, and did enjoy his puppy ice-cream the next day!

What I'm reading this week:

I just started Midsummer Mayhem by Marty Wingate, but I'm still also reading one Hercule Poirot story a week this month for my book club, and haven't finished Murder at Mullings yet (it's a paperback and I tend to take longer to finish those than books on my Kindle, lol!).  

What I'm listening to this week:

The series has a new narrator (the woman who did such a wonderful job with all of the other Lady Georgie books sadly passed away last year), but I listened to a snippet and she seems to do a nice job.

What I'm watching this week:

It was fabulous and I absolutely loved it!

What's happening in the kitchen:

I made a second, smaller batch of peach jam this week - it tastes like summer!

What's Charlie the beagle up to?

Charlie's friend, Gerald, came for a sleepover this weekend.  They alternated chasing each other around the yard and sleeping!

Today and the week ahead...

What is Charlie is up to?  

Charlie just had a bath (he smells like coconut!!!) and he's ready for a nap!  

Welcome to my blog! 

I'm not sure who'll even read this, or if I'm just writing it as a personal journal of sorts, but I wanted to create a place where I can talk about what I'm reading, cooking, eating, thinking about, etc... 

To start off, here's a picture of my favorite little canine - Charlie the beagle - reading his favorite classic mystery! 

Thanks for stopping by!
