from Annie Hall to
Annie Banks‘ mom, we will
miss you Ms. Keaton.

Always loved her, she was a great actress and had such a beautiful smile. She reminds me of my aunt. 💔

I learned much and feel more hopeful about peoples‘ ability & willingness to do good things when needed. I also loved Sharon‘s periodic cheeky commentary. 😉

Just stopped at Barnes & Noble for a browse and these Percival Everett books left with me. What could I do? They needed a home. 🤷🏻‍♀️

What a lovely educational read. Mad props to Sara for cycling over 10,000 miles. I now find myself paying attention to areas that could double as natural pollination areas.

I got lucky today! Brand new for $7.

In true ATK and Milk Street fashion, this isn‘t a compendium of boring basic bland veggie recipes, rather they embrace flavorful global flavors.👌🏾 Seasonal example is Mashed Butternut Squash with Cumin & Chili. Ohhhh, I just flipped to Habanero-Onion Soup with Lime. 😋

My daughter will not give her seal of approval on this book. 🤷🏽‍♀️

4.75⭐️ I really liked this book and was quite surprised that I did. I‘m no ballet expert but it seems like it‘s pretty accurate. I also liked the background of the height of the #coldwar rather than #wwii. I am really curious as to what next this author produces. #2025 #historucalfiction #russia #unitedstates #fiction #literaryfiction #family #rivarly

Sight Lines | Arthur Sze

Congratulations to Arthur Sze for becoming America‘s 25th Poet Laureate!

I was worried the position would go unfilled given all the federal cuts to the arts.

Dilara Let's hope it won't be rescinded... 1mo
BC_Dittemore @Dilara right? My hope is that poetry is so low on the radar it won‘t even be noticed. Which, now as I write it, strikes me as sad. 1mo
Dilara @BC_Dittemore Fingers crossed (but yes, i agree it's sad)! The fact that he wants to focus on translated poetry and isn't white might make him a target. I've only discovered his poetry the other day, but I really liked it. I hope it all goes well for him... 1mo
BC_Dittemore @Dilara same. I just happened to need to return a library book, (I wasn‘t going to check anything out or even look, I swear… well, maybe I would just look, but they definitely won‘t have any of his work) and found Sight Lines. (Only gonna check it out; my TBR is crazy, but they do have this nice Rita Dove collection, oh and there‘s Gwendolyn Brooks…) 😅 (edited) 1mo

I recommend this book. It covers US history that was never taught in the high school curriculum. It is dense with information and has a good bibliography on references used. I did have to take breaks from reading it, reading something lighter in subject matter, because of the intensity of the abuse ravaged upon indigenous people by the European invaders, then the continuing abuse of later immigrants to the USA who were not white.
