Books

Currently: December 2021

Welcome to December! What do you have going on this month? We have a busy month on deck with all sorts of gatherings and activities. Here’s what’s current in my life this month.

Current books I recently finished this baking memoir and now I’m onto a midwifery memoir, this dog health book, and this motherhood devotional-style book. Sadie is currently loving all of her Christmas-themed books! I’ll have to dedicate a post to all the ones we own, love, and read over and over again 😊🎄

Current food Venison again! This time from our preacher and his wife. We are spoiled 😊

Current baked good Good ‘ol chocolate chip cookies 🍪

Current drink Starbucks Holiday Blend. It has herbal and sweet maple notes 😍

Sunday Coffee Date

Hello and welcome to another Sunday Coffee Date post! This is one of my favorite types of posts–it’s just a fun casual time to chat as though we were meeting up for a cup of coffee. So, let’s do just that 😊

If we were having coffee right now… I would ask how you’re doing and what you’ve been up to this month. I haven’t been blogging as much as I would like to lately but I’m hoping to be more present in the upcoming weeks. I had two people complain about USPS shipping delays with my Etsy shop so I decided to just offer my bread locally. It’s the most popular item in my shop, but I don’t want people to have a bad experience with it arriving late, you know? It’s a lot of pressure off of my shoulders to just be shipping the granola and other items!

If we were having coffee right now… I would tell you that I finished about 90% of my holiday shopping and most of the items I purchased for family and friends are from small businesses! Speaking of small businesses, my friend Laura just launched the cutest kids gratitude journal in her shop!
