Hello friends, and happy May!
This was a good reading month for me, and I'd love to share those books with you.
Most of the books that I've read are from the library using the Libby app. I love that I can read popular books that I can just download onto my Kindle.
I enjoyed reading about this family drama that is set after a car accident. This story kept me on my toes.
My daughter bought this book to read and lent it to me. It's a cute rom-com that is set in Italy. It was such fun to read about being in Italy for 24 hours for a wedding and everything that takes place in that time. I enjoyed hearing about all of the places they visited and the food. The book even has a recipe to make an Italian dish.
I enjoyed this book and other books by this author. It's about a sort of writing competition for two authors who are trying to get and write about a reclusive woman's life.
If you have book recommendations, please let me know.
I will share this post at the monthly book link-up party, Share Your Shelf. It's held on the first Thursday of each month. Slices of Life

Hello friends, and happy May! 🌸
I'm joining Amy from the blog, Coffee and Cocktails at the Casa, for her Currently link-up. It's held on the first Wednesday of each month.
This month, we are sharing what we are loving, weeding, enjoying, eating/drinking, and shopping for.
LOVING: I've been seeing some Broadway shows at the Roundabout Theatre in Manhattan lately.
We enjoyed seeing Fallen Angels starring Kelli O'Hara, Rose Byrne, and Mark Consuelos.
We loved seeing The Rocky Horror Show at Studio 54 starring Luke Evans, Juliette Lewis, and Michaela Jae Rodriguez. This was such a fun show, and the cast was amazing.
WEEDING: We've been doing some home improvement projects in the house. We just had our handyman put in a new shower head in our bathroom. In another bathroom I had him do new chalk around a window and bathtub. He had to repaint the ceiling in our kitchen due to a leak from the old showerhead. I had him replace all of my hinges on my kitchen cabinets. I also gave all of my kitchen knobs a good cleaning. He also repaired a large gap/whole in the back top part of our garage. We've had stay cats get in the garage, and even a possum got in the top rafter over the winter. My husband had to scare the possum out of the garage. He had leaves and garbage all around him to keep him warm. I felt bad, but now we will not have any more animals living in our garage.
ENJOYING: I'm enjoying the warmer weather and happy not wearing a warm coat anymore. I love seeing the spring flowers on my walks to the gym and when I walk Lucy.
EATING/DRINKING: I've been trying to make healthy meals for our dinner. Below are some meals that I made recently for dinner.
I made roast pork tenderloin with string beans and spinach for dinner.
This is moo shoo pork with rice that I made for dinner.
Below, I made stuffed peppers with couscous and beans for dinner.
SHOPPING FOR: I've been shopping for all things, baby. I have two baby showers that I will be attending this month and next month. I bought a pretty dress for a spring garden party that I will be attending with my daughter at the Frick Museum in June. I will dress it up with my sandals and jewelry. I'm happy because I bought this dress on sale at Macy's.
This is what I wore last year for the garden party at the Frick Museum. My daughter and I had a fun time last year, and I'm looking forward to it again this year.
What is currently new with you?
