Didn‘t get a photo of the box itself, but my #LCS package is in the hands of the US Postal Service and on its way to Michigan!

I love Christmas time!! So happy to be participating in the #LittleChristmasSwap #LCS this year and will have my packages out in the mail in the next few days (as soon as I can get to UPS). The outside package is a used Amazon box - I hope that‘s ok, I‘ve never participated in a swap before - but the inside should be pretty 🤣. I‘m not sure if I‘m supposed to tag the recipient @bookish_wookish so let me know and I can add them! Thanks!

Sunday‘s Little Free Library finds on my way to the flea market. It was a lovely, long day with rehearsals for my ballet recital next weekend in the afternoon. Then a visit to Kmart afterwards where I got some arty farty stuff and my notebooks for next year.

Guys I‘m gonna participate in a Christmas swap!! It really sounds like fun and I know I could really use something sweet to look forward to (as I‘m sure many could right now). Sign ups for the #LittleChristmasSwap are open until 11/22. Go to @bookish_wookish for more information!

Shopping for book swaps today and knowing I couldn‘t buy myself books in case I got them in the swaps I found these that assuredly no one is going to buy for me. Childhood favorites. They were too gorgeous to pass up!

Loved it! Adorable. I read this because I saw and loved the Studio Ghibli movie The Secret World of Arrietty. The movie stays pretty well with the book, I think. I love the author‘s imagination in using human things for tiny people uses. I enjoyed that the family names of the Borrowers were where they lived like Overmantel, Harpsichord, Clock, and Rain-Pipe. They don‘t borrow, they steal, but they think human beans were made for Borrowers.

Book 2 of #DeweysReadathon done!

This was super cute and something I would have adored as a kid. I seem to have gone from Nancy Drew to “In Cold Blood“. I just missed a lot of kid's book and classics like this one.

Short story shorter: read this one. It's short, it's cute, and it's magical.

Thanks @Eggs for the #MotivationalMonday tag! 🤗

1️⃣ Honestly, just laying low & eating Cadbury mini eggs. It‘s going to be a long week! 😉

2️⃣ The Glass Universe (shown on the left) read for #SheSaid. It had so much potential. I wanted it to be more than a recital of names & dates.😔

3️⃣ SO MANY but The Borrowers (tagged) is one I was completely obsessed with as a child! 💛

Join in if you haven‘t! 🤗

Merry Christmas! We had our Christmas Eve dinner last nith pineapple glazed ham, mashed potatoes, sweet potato casserole, and Brussels sprouts.
