Happy Monday everyone!

 

How was your weekend?

We had a beautiful, sunny and warm weekend here, and we absolutely enjoyed it. This weekend was our 12th anniversary, so we celebrated with a lot of sun, a walk in the Old Port of Montreal, and an absolutely delicious dinner there, too. I had lobster carbonara tagliatelle and we shared desserts, and it was amazing all around.

I’ve been feeling like the luckiest woman ever for the past 12 years, so here’s to many dozens more!

Mailbox!

It’s a small mailbox this week, but I love these! They allow for catching up with the infinite reading pile… or try to!

So two books, and a coloring book. I’m a slow colorer but I was excited to receive this one. I’d been a fan of Millie Marotta for a while and her book is gorgeous!

  1. Yum, sounds like a great weekend! Your books look great too – I have the Japan colouring in book and I’m liking it a lot.

  2. Happy Anniversary! I bet you’re good at coloring – I struggle choosing the colors to use so it’s stressful for me. Enjoy your new books.

  3. Happy Anniversary, Kay! Enjoy coloring 🙂

  4. I bought Animal Kingdom and have colored a few pages. I do it sporadically when I’m in the mood, but it is a lovely book and I love the illustrations. Great for coloring.

  5. Happy anniversary to you!

  6. Happy anniversary! Your dinner looks delicious!

    Enjoy your week and your new books. Seating Arrangements is now on my radar. I enjoyed Maine.
