we're all mad here
I SURVIVED MY FIRST FLIGHT IN OVER A DECADE! I’m not even joking. I’m 27, and the last time I flew, I was 11 and going to Disney in Florida. So, even better, this was not only my first flight in over a decade, it was my first flight alone, and my first time leaving…

Welcome to Monday Musings, a series where I review books that I read pre-end of 2017, when I started writing wrap-ups, talk about characters or topics that aren’t as relevant, or sometimes a surprise non-bookish thing.

Finally! How has it taken me this long to write this blog? This is absurd. If I tried to post all of the pictures of me reading/writing with tea, we would literally be here forever. Drinking tea is my number one favorite thing to do when it comes to words, whether I’m writing or reading…

An exciting thing happened to me over the weekend. I wasn’t really planning on writing this blog at all until about halfway through part two of the exciting thing, and then I realized that since one of my books is heavily based inside of a teashop, I should probably review the teas that I bought…
Read MoreI’ve been thinking a lot about music lately. For the first time in years, I’m listening to the radio in the car rather than the CDs (yes, I know) I have burned. It’s for a few reasons. One: the CDs I have burned all pre-date, like, 2015, and I’m just not interested in many of…
