Weekly Roundup: Never Say Never

 

A weekly roundup: eats, workouts, watches, and reads.  In this week's edition I made my favorite frosted sugar cookies and watched a ton of movies, including the one that I said I would never, ever watch.

A Tour of My Great Grandmother's 1910 Fannie Farmer Cookbook


Today we're going to take a walk back in time and take a look at my Great Grandmother's Fannie Farmer cookbook.  My Great Grandmother passed away in 1977 when I was two, but I do have very slight memories of her.  My mother (her granddaughter-in-law) adored her and often went to visit and cooked lunch for her at her house.  The paperwork inside the book dates from 1910 to 1976.

Two Old Books That I Love and Two New Books That I Love

 

One of my favorite sources for reading ideas is the Sarah's Bookshelf podcast.  On each episode, Sarah asks her guest for:

  • Two old books that they love
  • Two new books that they love
  • A book that they didn't love
  • An upcoming release that they are excited about
  • The last five star book that they read

I'm going to be a pretend guest on Sarah's podcast and give you my answers.
