Welcome to Litsy!

I‘m having a book hangover. After Mercedes Lackey Alice Stein Bach is my favorite writer. This was such a sweet travelogue. Defiantly doing some armchair traveling....

Sent some #LitsyLove:). Am enjoying the day getting my stationary stuff together, cleaning off my desk to actually use it and of course reading the tagged book:)

Enjoying a laidback Monday morning (last day of my daughter‘s mini Fall break).

My daughter wanted to be on Litsy. 😁

Finished this today and going in the mail Monday! Forgive a little bit of sand in the pages 😜 #LMPBC #ROUND5

I received these beautiful gifts from @Carolyn11215 for the #LMPBC swap! Thank you so much! I love the key chain-turquoise is beautiful to me. New Mexico is a state on my bucket list ❤️ #running50states

I am heartbroken to discover that Alice Steinbach passed away in 2012. She was so full of life and wit and charm as exemplified by this travel memoir. I would have loved to meet her for a cup of coffee to hear more about her experiences in Paris, Kyoto, Cuba, Scotland, England and Prague. She and her curiosity are an inspiration to me!

@minkyb thanks for sending on the book and the cool bookmark from the Boston Fine Arts Museum!! #lmpbc #groupS

This was between a pick and a so-so for me. I looked forward to the drawings in many of the chapters representing Alice in her travels. There were a few slower parts that made me want to skim. I learned a lot of interesting facts - Alice sure met some interesting people on her journey! I can‘t wait to see what the rest of my #lmpbc thinks! Mailing out to @minkyb today!! @Kappadeemom @Carolyn11215

Starting my #lmpbc read! Excited to read along with @minkyb @Carolyn11215 and @Kappadeemom !! Do you want to ship in the order we signed up: Me -> Melanie -> Carolyn -> Mindy ?? Open to other ideas if you don‘t ☺️

My interpretation of #whendovescry is a homage to Alice Steinbach. She took flight and soared in her risk taking adventure that involved leaving a career, traveling, meeting new people, writing, cooking, and adventurously embracing this big world. She experienced an awakening and generously shares it. I cried like a baby at the end when I had looked her up and discovered she was taken far too soon by cancer. 🕊#lyricalapril #flystrong #godspeed
