TBR Update

I'm on book # 5 of my TBR list. At the beginning of the year, I took the challenge to read 12 books that have been sitting on my shelf. I love to read and often buy or borrow new books. But there are always some books that remain on the shelf for one reason or another. I picked 12 primary and some alternates. Maybe I will let Wuzzy our cat choose what I should read next. Here is my list: 2009 TBR

Celebrating with The Queen

The bees were buzzing around DC today. Originally we planned to see the cherry blossoms at the tidal basin, but rain and clouds and cold kept us mostly inside. Not to worry! We went to the Botanical Gardens. Then we enjoyed tea at The Willard, where peacock alley was resplendent with cherry blossoms. Click on the play button and watch for Obee.
