Now Playing: Linda Ronstadt – “You’re No Good”

I haven’t been able to get this song off my mind since I watched The Sound of My Voice, the Linda Ronstadt documentary. I’ve been acquainted with her music since I was a young child, but I never really knew how much of a pioneer she was for women in rock and roll. She played…

The Perfect Day

Today was the first day of the year above seventy degrees. A warm, gentle breeze drifted in through the open windows and all you could hear was the birds playing in the trees. It was a day that resembled mid-summer rather than the early days of spring. As soon as I set foot outside, the…

Flash Poetry: Photo Challenge #1

In case you missed it, HERE is my first flash fiction photo challenge. I thought I would attempt to write a poem this time. HAPPY READING! 😀 I reached up to touch a star while my feet were still on the ground. It faltered and fell, a pinch of fire landed in my eyes. From…

Butterscotch Rice Krispies

Another installment of Cakes & Bakes? Yes, I couldn’t help myself. Stress baking is a real thing. Besides, everybody loves Rice Krispie treats. This was one my favorites as a kid and I thought you might like this recipe, too. Butterscotch tastes like peanut butter and caramel had a baby. It adds a bit of…

The Florence Pugh Cooking Show

I may be one of the few people on the planet who don’t have an Instagram account. That doesn’t mean I don’t try to keep up with the times, though. I’m hip, I know what’s going on. A few weeks ago, I noticed everyone rushing to Florence Pugh’s Instagram page. They didn’t say what, in…

Farewell Brakebills

On Wednesday night, after five seasons, The Magicians said their final farewell and took their last bow. The show’s premature and sudden cancellation was a tough blow for fans who had watched the series since the beginning. Over the years, the show became a beacon for imagination and inclusivity. No one had ever seen such…

Album Review: Dua Lipa – Future Nostalgia

“You got me in love again” I’m not a dancer. I don’t like to dance, ever. I have no rhythm and I’m incredibly awkward. It’s not a nice sight to see. I may shake it out in the privacy of my own home, but those moments are few and far between. My spins and shakes…

Blog Challenge Update (April)

March was not a good month for multiple and obvious reasons. I haven’t completed any of the goals I had set for myself during my last challenge update. I did, after years of hesitation, finally make the time to upload all of my blog photos to WordPress and delete my Photobucket account; but that’s about…

Psst! Hey, over here. I have something to tell you. . . Killing Eve is premiering two weeks early on April 12th. *Insert an obnoxiously loud fangirl scream.* Yes, finally! Some good news. Frankly, I could not be happier. This trailer is just so, so perfect. I mean, come on. What more could you ask…
