Here‘s a pic of my roll for the #DiceyDalliance challenge. I think that, next time, I may choose from only library books instead, but it‘ll still be nice to get another book off of #MountTBR.

I was working yesterday, so I‘m playing catch-up.
1. I really enjoy packing a selection of meats and cheeses and hoagie rolls so everyone can build their own sandwich. I haven‘t done that in years. Maybe I‘ll have to change that.

1. Yes. When I was in my early 20s, I stopped into a HS library I‘d never been to before. My university was offering one of its Spanish classes at the HS, and it was a required class for me and also the only one that wasn‘t already full. When I walked in, the librarian greeted me by name, and she was so excited to see me. It ended up that she was the librarian at the library I went to when I was a little girl, and she remembered me years later. ⬇️
Spanish food for #foodandlit. Chocolate tres leches cake was a hit. Chicken paella, the kids loved the chicken more than the rice. @Texreader @Catsandbooks
Happy May!! What are some of your favorite AAPI writers or stories? #aapi
Hello, does anyone know how to download humble bundle ebooks onto an android tablet? I‘m sorry I just got this tablet and I am really lost. Thanks for any help you guys are awesome 😉🤩🤓
What I‘ve come to learn about myself is that, no matter how good my intentions are, I rarely stick with a reading challenge that someone else sets for me. So, I‘ve created my own seven-layered challenge. It can be done over and over again. I can try to get all seven checked off in a day or in a week. Whatever feels right. It allows for mood reading and will also help me pick up different types of books in different formats. ⬇️
1. 👩❤️👨👫- Family and friends‘ love
🩺 - Health (means more as I age!)
📚 - my books!
2. 👶 - that one of my children will eventually produce a grandchild
💰 - that my school district will receive funding so that all of the librarians whose jobs were cut (myself included) can get our jobs back
👩🏫 - that I will survive returning to the classroom with all the grading & planning I escaped when I left

This is from last Thursday, but too fun not to do it! I got 111 out of 187–better than 68% of quiz takers! Some of the favorites on the list that I would love to rewatch are Amadeus, Dangerous Liaisons, and Blood Simple. #TLT #ThreeListThursday
Ran across this online and fell in love...I love these theater masks 🎭😍💝. Just thought I'd share. It seems carved into the page edges of a book...

This version of Lilac Wine is haunting. There used to be a YouTube video of the session if that‘s more your thing. Here‘s the Spotify link:

It is time to vote for June‘s author for #queerbc
The plan is that voting will last around 2 weeks and then there is another 2 weeks to pick a book and source it. We‘ll see how it goes!
Here are the 3 randomly selected authors to pick from. You are selecting an author and can read any of their works. You can read anything they have written.
Vote here - https://forms.gle/LHni7Mhzm46pCZkD7
Voting ends 17th May

Hellllooooo friends! Here are the #readyourkindle numbers for May (I almost typed March 😂). Remember - even if you don‘t get to all of the drawn books, it‘s okay! If you‘re reading *any* ebooks, even if they aren‘t the drawn ones, it‘s okay! If you‘re behind (as I am), it‘s okay! 😀😘😅🤗 Have fun! #readyourebooks #readyournook

My favorite sort of #HyggeHour items: my handmade pink mug, today‘s tarot card pull and an interesting crystal reference book that I enjoy flipping through. 🍵 🃏 📚
- picking up 2 new pendants/pendulums that I‘m looking forward to learning how to work with
- flipping through a pendulum book
- making a stack of festival bracelets
- a new bingo board for the last 2/3 of the year
- making chicken fried rice for dinner last night

This evening, my mom and I were watching one of our favorite shows. Todd (one of the main characters of the show) is sitting and waiting for a clue at a restaurant when a series of names are called out for order pickup. One of the names given is my brother's name, Ulysses Joe! How epic!
Just found out that this TV show, So Help Me Todd has been cancelled!!!! Not another one, still not over the cancelation of the Fantasy Island reboot.
April #wrapup #BookspinBingo
I still feel like my reading is off. I DNFed my #Bookspin and got a bingo. I ended up skipping #aam for the month.
Reviews? What are those? 🤪
Total read: 9
Novella - 2
Audio - 4
Novels - 2
Children‘s book - 1
DNF - 1
It‘s the end of the first third of the year, and the beginning of the following third. I only just heard about this challenge today, so I made up a board for myself for the last two-thirds of the year. Ready. Set. Go!
#bingoboardfromhell2024
Here is my #BookspinBingo for May. I will move the titles as needed when @TheAromaofBooks shares the numbers on May 2nd.
#Bookspin #Doublespin
I‘m using a year long list like @TheAromaofBooks does. This month I didn‘t move books from the list on the right. Instead I added a couple more of #MyPartnerPickedIt and ‘one gifted to me,‘ because I have neglected those a bit.
#BookspinBingo list to come.

1️⃣ wildflowers
2️⃣ Delights and Shadows by Ted Kooser
3️⃣ I‘m hoping to plan at least two movie nights for our family. Just the four of us watching a movie at home. I‘m thinking also takeout pizza, which we only splurge on every few months.
@Eggs Thank you for hosting this fun challenge. I don‘t always participate, but I love reading the answers, and challenges like this really make Litsy feel so welcoming and fun. 🤗

Placebo has been one of my favorite bands for years now. I was lucky enough to see them back in 2000, and they just released a new live album, which is fantastic 💗
#TuesdayTunes @TieDyeDude
This is one of my all time favorite songs. Someone shared it with me years ago, and it‘s stuck with me when other songs have fallen away. I‘ll try to share the link below. ⬇️

My picks this month. I needed more genres for the badge and debuts and chunksters.
I read six books in April. Empire of the Damned was my favorite ❤️
For #ReadOrDonate as usual I read one of them, This Poison Heart, but will probably donate it and The Coffin Path. @julieclair
I love this question! What a cool idea for something to ask everyone. I‘m really looking forward to going through the tag and checking out everyone else‘s answers.
As for me, I own the most copies of Anne Sexton‘s complete poems. I think I have four copies of it. Possibly five. I have several different editions, some of which are literally falling apart. One of them has been written in heavily. All of them are well loved. #SundayFunday
Tried reading in the past couple of days but was distracted by this view…
(Cabarete Beach, Dominican Republic)
Tried some Venezuelan candy and cookies for #foodandlit. There was lots of chocolate snacks and I liked most of them better than their American counterparts. For example, they had a “crunch” bar and a “Hershey” bar that was better. The hands down favorite was the strawberry bubble gum lollipop and the coconut wafer cookie. @Texreader @Catsandbooks
Sorry honey. I don‘t know what happened. I was running errands all day, was headed home, and realized I needed to go to the bathroom and there was just happened to be Barnes and noble so I ran in to go to the bathroom and I thought I would pick up the #camplitsy books for June and something happened. I think I blacked out, maybe I got sucked into the vortex. Now we have 7 books, a tea towel and a puzzle. In my defense it was also raining.
1. The Power of Love by Frankie Goes to Hollywood
2. Time After Time by Cyndi Lauper
3. Lucky Star by Madonna
^^^I got stuck going down an 80s songs rabbit hole for the past hour. I finally realized there were no perfect 3 songs, because they can‘t really be narrowed down that far. So, with the exception of the first song, the others are not top favorites of mine. They‘re just great songs.
#ThreeListThursday #TLT
The variety of brands and colors and number of rolls for one price and designs of washi tape is mind boggling!! I don‘t mind sparing $10 on this but there are too many choices!! lol #litsylove HELP!! @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Read4life @TieDyeDude
