Hi, 👋
My apologies for my absence over the last few weeks. How are you all?
Grab a ☕️ and join in the #Chatterday chitchat.

All are welcome to join in. No topics are off the table. This is a safe place to share your thoughts, feelings, plans, and experiences. Just as you would with a friend in the real world.

Wishing you all a fab weekend. 🌞

Librarybelle Life has been hectic; no apologies necessary! I think I can relax most of this weekend. I‘ve barely had much downtime the last few weeks, and I have a few things on the horizon that will make it even less the rest of the year. But, it helps pay Zeke‘s medical bills (he‘s doing very well) and distracts from the world at large. I‘ll snatch reading time when I can! Hope all is well with everyone. 17h
Cuilin No apology necessary, life can be that way. Hoping to relax, read and get a little outside time this weekend. Health has been up and down. Med changes, more testing. I‘m boring myself talking about it. 😴 16h
Cuilin @Librarybelle Glad to hear Zeke‘s doing well. 16h

AllDebooks @Librarybelle it's good to hear Zeke is still doing well. Have a relaxing weekend. X 14h
AllDebooks @Cuilin oh no. Chronic illness is the worst. I hope you're okay and enjoy a bit of time in the sunshine. X 14h
quietlycuriouskate Hello! I had hoped to be one month closer to menopause but, alas, this morning I've had to reset the timer to zero again. 😒 On the plus side, I went out and bought my spring-flowering bulbs. Just thinking of all the colour and joy they secretly contain is making me feel better. 13h
TheBookHippie @quietlycuriouskate UGHHHHH my sympathies… yuk. 13h
TheBookHippie @Cuilin Ha. Same. Hoping it ends up good for you. 13h
TheBookHippie Migraine Clinic Monday. One of my meds side affects are too much so I‘m weaning off it… which will be 😵‍💫 it helped my essential tremor, anxiety, hot flashes and vertigo…. So yah. That‘s me. Otherwise trying to get by in this dumpster fire world and find joy. My sunflowers are starting to open up to show their flower and I am beyond excited. (edited) 13h
TheBookHippie @Librarybelle glad he‘s well and you have the funds!!!! Sometimes busy helps!! ♥️ 13h
Librarybelle Thanks, @Cuilin @AllDebooks @TheBookHippie ! I hope everyone feels better and has an opportunity to relax this weekend. ❤️ 12h
dabbe @Librarybelle Yay for Zeke! Glad you're having a relaxing weekend and hope you can snag lots of reading time. 💜🧡💛 11h
dabbe @Cuilin I never thought I'd have to say this, but isn't it nice when you have one day when you feel good for the ENTIRE time? I hope many more of those for you. Crossing everything I can for good testing results. 💜🧡💛 11h
dabbe @quietlycuriouskate That beyond sucks. Glad you have the perfect way to handle that news. Have a relaxing day with your planting, and I'll be wishing for menopause to come soon! Such a hump to get over. 💜🧡💛 10h
dabbe @TheBookHippie AUGH! Sending 💜🧡💛, my friend, and crossing my everything that you get these issues solved. Glad you have your zen garden and can't wait to see more pictures of it; it's zen for all of us. 10h
dabbe No worries! Life has a way of getting in the way sometimes. 💜🧡💛 Finally got rid of all my sutures on my shoulder and had my first PT yesterday, which went amazingly well. Had to take pain meds later, but still! Looking forward to a walk with Matt & the pups, and a quiet day of reading and college footballs. Such a combo, right? Hope everyone has a lovely weekend. 💜🧡💛 10h
Librarybelle Thanks, @dabbe and glad to hear PT went well! 5h
dabbe @Librarybelle TY! 💛💜🧡 5h

#FridayHappyReadingHour (outdoor edition) got rained out so Cricket & I looking for a zucchini bread/muffin recipe.

(Per daughter‘s request because the sugar cancels the zucchini as a vegetable. Chocolate chips will make it a bonafide dessert.)

Ruthiella I love zucchini bread. Yum! 😋 1d
mcctrish That is a healthy looking zucchini!!! I like making zucchini ‘fries‘ and chocolate cake with zucchini in it 1d

All these years and I‘m still finding new-to-me Nigella recipes in my cookbook collection. Today I baked her coffee walnut cake for my uncle‘s birthday. It was delicious, though I think next time I‘d ice the sides instead of dividing it equally between the middle & top, as per the official instructions. These are some thick icing layers.

TheBookHippie Oooooo!!!! Looks so good! 2d
xicanti @TheBookHippie it‘s definitely one to make again. 2d
TheBookHippie @xicanti I have a couple of her cookbooks I need to take them back out! 2d

I‘m heading to the farmers market here one last time before I leave town, so I decided to write a little something for the #haikuhive

The farmers market:
Fresh produce, food trucks - maybe
I‘ll see a neighbor

We do not care that we texted "Bring snacks" to our husband on his way home, and this was the result. We trained him well. ???

Last night‘s scores from the book swap after my extra exam ballet lesson. It was nice to walk home after in the warm evening air with the full moon rising. Summer is on its way to save me! I also scored the stool from next to the bins downstairs. Yay for a new pot stand!
