Good morning, friend. I hope you are ready to start the work week. My work week is not the traditional one, but I have plenty to do. So, it is Monday, and you know what that means: what I’ve been watching, making, reading, and cooking.

WHAT I’VE BEEN WATCHING: I really have not had time to watch anything this past week, but when I did, I watched stories. Some favorites are @theramblingredhead and @Oldetymemarketplace.

WHAT I’VE BEEN MAKING: A mess. Yesterday I carved out some time to paint a child’s chair and remove some caning from the seat of a chair. Both will go in my antique booth. The caning was busted, so there was no fixing it. I’m going to put a potted plant in the seat of it.

WHAT I’VE BEEN READING: I read The Other Mrs. by Mary Kubica over the weekend. There is language. Boo! This is a twisty psychological thriller that I couldn’t put down.

WHAT I’VE BEEN COOKING: This past weekend was so busy that I didn’t have time to cook, so I picked up food from my favorite restaurant for my family to enjoy. Tonight, I plan on cooking pork chops.

I hope you have the best week and I will see you on Wednesday.

Best,

Amy
