The weather was so nice this weekend that we sat outside on my brother and SIL’s patio (which is quite lovely btw.) Considering that it’s very humid and hot here in KS now, I’m glad that it was such a beautiful Sunday.

…is a great used bookstore, The Dusty Bookshelf. It’s dangerous to go in there because I usually come out with a stack of books. But yesterday I was good and only bought an Edward Gorey postcard.
