Kicking off the weekend the best way I know how - another YA adaptation for the #PemberLittens and a strong, cold G&T. Hope everyone has at least a little bit of laziness in front of them! #BooksAndBooze #BooksAndBlooms #JaneAustenThenAndNow
Nothing like closing out the week with another chapter and some limoncello!
"By waking up to the world, by renouncing certainty and cynicism, by opening herself to new experiences- all of which takes real courage, real strength - [Catherine] turned life into an adventure that would never end. This, Austen told us, is the true heroism. Life, if you live it right, keeps surprising you and the thing that keeps surprising you the most...is yourself."
It‘s a beautiful Saturday evening, and I‘m enjoying a strawberry mule thanks to inspiration from @BarbaraJean while finishing the chapters for the May portion of Lamentation. I‘m enjoying it, but I miss the collaboration and comradeship of Shardlake, Barak, and Guy.

Saturday night #BooksAndBooze
I‘ve reached the part of this book where I just don‘t want to stop, but I also don‘t want to get too far ahead of the chapters on the schedule for March.

pickMy first foray into the genre and loved it. Maybe it‘s a ‘right time, right place‘ situation but given that it‘s January, it‘s dark, it‘s snowy, it‘s cold, what more could you want than to crawl into a great little fantasy novel. I‘m looking forward to getting lost in the next in the series soon.
My Shakespearean insults mug also helps to keep my spirits up time of year 😍

Christmas shopping done. Time for #BooksAndBooze. Earned it.
Monday afternoon #BooksAndBooze. Cannot beat it.
I'm so sorry to clutter your feed with a picture of a lemon ?, but I couldn't resist buying this amazing fruit, it looked so tempting! Now, to justify buying it, I'm making a White Lady cocktail ?, and to justify posting about it, I'm going to read the story in which I first came across the drink, Tove Jansson's eponymous "White Lady" from the tagged story collection ???
