As you know, September was a difficult month for me. But because October was so incredibly busy (as you probably saw from the sudden burst of activity on the blog), September feels like… months ago. October was both very long and very short at the same time and I’m both ready and not-ready for the… Read More October 2024 in Review
Hey friends, I’m writing this a bit early because I’ll be headed off for a trip soon and I won’t get back till sometime in October, and given my energy levels nowadays, I probably won’t have a blogpost up until mid-to-late October (though I will likely make a few substack posts as I blog from… Read More Not a September ’24 in Review post
Hello friends! We’re now in September, which means that it’s going to be quite hectic from here up till the end of the year because I’ll be going overseas to attend two weddings. But that’s the future and this post is for the past so let’s look back at August. August in Books August was… Read More August 2024 in Review
It feels like the weeks are short but the months are even shorter because I am NOT prepared for August. It’s been a very hectic July for me and I’m not sure if I’ve fully collected all my thoughts but I’m here to try and do a round-up of the month! What I’m Reading As… Read More July 2024 in Review
Hello friends, I have resurfaced from the world of books (and work, I guess) to bring you a mini monthly update! If you’ve noticed, I’ve not had many of the planned “themed” posts because they’ve not been written! I did have a few posts here and there (and the review of the smoked Japanese teas… Read More June 2024 in Review
Hello! I’m poking my head back up from my reading/crocheting hole to talk about what’s been happening in May. First up: I’ve still not finished my smoked tea review post. If I don’t get it done in June, I’m just going to have to accept that I’m just enjoying teas and not writing about them… Read More May 2024 in Review
Hello friends! I can’t say that I’m definitely going back to the monthly reviews but since it’s my first month back at the blog (time has gone by quickly and also it feels like I never left), I thought I’d do a small rambling recap. So I chose a good time to come back to… Read More April 2024 in Review
Hello friends!! I actually had a really great reading month in November but that has come at the expense of pretty much everything else – you’ll see that my reading log only has the book and hasn’t been “beautified” with stickers yet. But no worries, it’s time to do a month in review. November in… Read More November in Review + December’s Reading & Tea Plans
Hello friends! It’s been a while since we had a month-in-review post, since I was overseas at the start of October and well… I’ve actually been overseas too. So this is late but thankfully not so late that I lose all momentum to write this. October in Books After reading only nine books in September… Read More Month in Review: October 2023
Hello friends! August was a short month for me – I had something on pretty much every Saturday so all the days felt like it was compressed together. In fact, towards the end of the month, I felt so busy I decided to take half the week off. I’ll probably continue on a more relaxed… Read More August in Review
