Now that it’s the day after Thanksgiving have you started putting out Christmas decorations. My mom wanted to get the Christmas stuff out from the shed and put it up but, everyone else in the house (me included) doesn’t want it out until December. Especially, because we keep the stuff out until like the 2nd week of January depending on the weather.
Happy Thanksgiving everybody
I hope you were able to spend time with family even if it was through a screen or in-person (if you were safe and able to do so). Normally, my mom and I would make the sides while my dad and brother make the turkeys at our place then, go to my aunt’s house with everyone and eat there. This year we dropped off the food on their doorstep and ate by ourselves at our place (a lot of my family is high risk so, we weren’t risking it).
Perspective
I finished ‘The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue’ this morning and, it changed my perspective of wanting to know when I die. One of the main characters makes a year-long deal to be loved, at the cost of his soul. So he tries to make a lot of memories and do a lot in that time frame but, as the second comes closer to the last, he realizes he wants more time and that your life is always a few seconds short of what you want. I summarize what happened and left it as vague as possible so that it doesn’t spoil the book.
But I now know that I’m content in not knowing when I die.
Pomegranates
Every year we get a few pomegranates. I’m always excited to open them until I have to because I forget how messy they are to open.
This year opening them wasn’t too bad. I only made a mess was on the cutting board and it went better than last year. 13 seeds were dropped on the floor.
OwlCrate unboxing sort of
Hey everyone, my November OwlCrate box arrived today and, I thought I’d show you all what came in it. This months theme is Growing Wid.
As you can see in the picture, there are 6+ items. From the top, there are 5 different flower prints inspired by Lord of the Rings. The big square to the left is a flower press inspired by A Darker Shade of Magic. Next to that is Among the Beast and Briars by Ashley Poston. To the right of the book is a 12 month Reading Planner with plants on the covers. In front of the flower press is a sticker sheet featuring botany and OwlCrate sets. The last 2 things in the middle are a bear pin based on a character from the book above and a dandelion pendant necklace inspired by Wild Beauty.
