Hello friends! It’s a two-in-one post today because I went for the Paddington Bear-themed tea at Skai and of course, I had to read the book before I went. Afternoon Tea Review I first went to Skai in 2020 (apparently also for my birthday) and my friend and I enjoyed it so much that we… Read More Paddington Bear Afternoon Tea @ Skai & Book Review
I’ve had my eye on The Kamogawa Food Detectives for a while because it seems like the cosy, heartwarming genre of Japanese fiction I like – books like What You’re Looking For is in the Library and There’s No Such Thing as an Easy Job come to mind as similar titles. And if you’ve read… Read More Book Review: The Kamogawa Food Detectives by Hisashi Kashiwai
It’s been a very long time since I read Agatha Christie (reread or not) so I was pretty excited to run across At Bertram’s Hotel while at the library. It’s a Miss Marple mystery, which I generally am not as familiar with, but I’m slowly overcoming my previous reluctance to read her books. At Bertram’s… Read More Book Review: At Bertram’s Hotel by Agatha Christie
Hello Friends! So…. I spent a little longer than expected just talking about the introductory parts about Raaya, so I figured I need a post just to talk about our experience there. Honestly, we had a pretty good time overall, but for clarity’s sake, I thought I’d break this post into different sections as well.… Read More Maldives Honeymoon – Raaya by Atmosphere Part 2

Hello friends! I am excited to bring you this three-parter on our Maldives honeymoon, mostly because I’ve not done a travel post in ages and I am excited to be doing it again! To be honest, Maldives was not on our radar at first! Actually, I don’t think we had any firm honeymoon desires, except… Read More Maldives Honeymoon – Why Maldives & Our First Night!
As I mentioned in my post about dragon book and podcast recommendations, I wanted to read The Penguin Book of Dragons. It’s not that commonly available, but I had a free afternoon so I went to the library to get this book and a few others. The Penguin Book of Dragons collects texts about dragons… Read More Book Review: The Penguin Book of Dragons edited by Scott G. Bruce
Hello friends! After posting my update, I pretty much disappeared and basically, after a great honeymoon, I came back and immediately plunged into work – we are adopting new ERP software so that has pretty much consumed my waking hours. But I had a great trip and managed to read lots of books, so now… Read More Book Review: Dress Codes by Richard Thompson Ford
Hello internet friends! I’ve been meaning to write this for a while but life has gotten really busy and I’m only now just starting. You guys have been so supportive ever since I mentioned that I was going to be taking a break from blogging and well… I think we all know that I never… Read More The Update I’ve Been Meaning to Write
This book is filed under: books that I procrastinated a really long time on. And I really have no excuse – I procrastinated on T Kingfisher’s Nettle and Bone for a while, only to discover that I really liked it, and then… didn’t pick up another book. Even though this book has a delightful title… Read More Book Review: A Wizard’s Guide to Defensive Baking by T Kingfisher
