A large, leafless tree stands prominently in a grassy field surrounded by smaller trees and shrubs under an overcast sky.

Bit of a muddy walk around Osterley Park.

A large tree with bare branches stands under a bright blue sky with scattered white clouds.

Reading books for pleasure is so much fun, I wonder why I ever stopped?

Back into it this month, and the first two I read (pretty much at random) are both set in New Hampshire.

Finished reading: The Last of the Moon Girls by Barbara Davis 📚

Five stars not enough. A murder mystery fairytale witch hunt romance, beautifully woven together.

Relaxing morning with the kids.

I’m sucking on stray lumps of Red Leicester while stirring the rest of the grated cheese into thickened white sauce, monitoring the macaroni simmering in the other pan (for big kid and me), and checking on sausages in the oven (for little kid).

Big kid is playing Minecraft with a friend and little kid is exploring space on his tablet.

Wife is having her morning nap.
