How to Sell a Haunted House by Grady Hendrix.

Not a whole lot of spooky stuff happening so far, but I’m pretty happy to be an only child.

I really enjoyed T Kingfisher’s The Twisted Ones (2019). According to the author, it’s based off of a story (The White People by Arthur Machen) that freaked Lovecraft out.

I just added this one to my TBR! The synopsis reminds me of a shorter Three Body Problem (which I really…liked? I’m not sure that’s even the right word for that series lol).

The Deep by Nick Cutter.

I’m not sure if it’s a case of hindsight, but I finished reading this right before the titanic sub incident and it definitely unlocked a new fear.

Yes! Towards the end of winter my plants are looking rough and I keep telling them, “X more months guys!” because my house doesn’t have a good amount of sunshine.

Saw it for the 1st time last October. My kid absolutely loved it and wants to move to Chicago to see it more often.

this is Pierogi poor Ozman’s little sister.

I’ve heard of the white cat issues too! I think it may have to do with the blue eyed gene too, but Ozzy has green eyes.

Nope none of the above! He can hear his can of food being opened every morning and definitely sees when his “little” sister wants to cuddle with him on the couch.

To be a good influence. My 7 year old wants to start weightlifting to get stronger for her gymnastics classes, so I’ve been teaching her the basics, stuff to do with dumbbells because I don’t have a bar she can lift yet, as well as yoga and good eating habits. Honestly, sometimes she’s a better influence on me to get out there.

I don’t, but I want to get one for my husband for his birthday. If I get the dock, can 2 people play the same game of it’s on a TV or do I need 2 decks?

I’m so happy that I’m able to make a lot of things that my family eats from scratch. Bread does not need sugar/HFCS in it to be tasty! Really the only things I buy pre made now is pasta (I’m learning how to make spaghetti noodles, but elbow noodles remain elusive lol).

And then save the bacon grease in a jar to add to gravys! I add a tablespoon or so to my sausage gravy for biscuits and gravy and it is freaking delicious. Can also use it to grease a cast iron pan before making a pizzookie for a little extra flavor.

Don’t worry! My second loaf of this batch didn’t anywhere near this nice. It almost looks like a frisbee lol

This is Ken Forkish’s White Bread with Poolish recipe from Flour Water Salt Yeast. Makes 2 loaves.

I make the poolish the night before. Do a bulk fermentation for at least 3 hours, then final prove for 1. Bake in a dutch oven with the lid on for 30 mins, then 20 mins with it off.

There will always be shows where the references go over the viewers heads. Hell, I’ve had to Google so much from The Golden Girls that I didn’t understand. My 10 year old and 7 year old both love Futurama. The characters are timeless.

I would not be surprised! But nah, my kid was laying on the floor with him right before I took this. She was making him a box fort.
