Welcome to Litsy!

Fresh out of the oven, and it smells amazing: Auf den Kopf von Apfelkuchen. Upside down apple cake.

I tweaked the recipe a little, using less sugar, a tad bit more cinnamon, and switched to Granny Smith apples. Recipe is from the same baker who created the upside down rhubarb cake that we made the other week.

Two women brought together by grief become instant enemies & hate-work together to save the tree farm their departed loved one left behind. A charming fall/winter enemies to lovers holiday romance. I enjoyed the characters and how they worked through their respective trauma. I wish the dad had been a character and not just a boogie man, and that we got more of the tree farm flavor than the small glimpse. #LGBTQIA #RushathonChristmasBingo

I managed 3 bingos in my Decemebr #bookspinbingo. I love this challenge and am excited to continue doing it in 2024.

This was a cute little short audio book! It reminded me of a Hallmark movie. It was predictable but still good.

I re-found this Hanukkah audio novella series this year & really enjoyed listening to them in the holiday bustle of running errands & doing tasks. Is it my all-time #FaveHolidayBk ? No, but if you like quick, rom-coms with a fun friend group set in NYC during the holidays, they are a good listen! ❄️💙❄️

Busy day of meetings in Hilo & now waiting for the rest of the plane to board, so I thought I sneak in today‘s prompt. The tagged book & The Matzah Ball both have #Hanukkah celebrations in them. I‘m not sure if the author‘s latest book Kissing Kosher does. 🕎 💙
