Check out these false foxglove flowers from my walk today! They lined both sides of the path! #CoSoNature

On Mondays, I do a little blog hop called Open Book. Light, usually fun topics, related to writing life. This week we're talking about favorite books--and I always find it so hard to pick! Do you have a favorite book? Why is it your favorite? https://samanthadunawaybryant.blogspot.com/2023/09/picking-favorites-open-book-blog-hop.html #CoSoReaders #CoSoWriters

I made it out for a walk before the rain came. So glad I did. #CoSoNature

I could sit and watch the jellyfish at an aquarium for days at a time. Somethings so relaxing about watching them move.

My favorite picture of the kid from our weekend trip: enjoying a kitten at a car café. Aren’t they the cutiest? #CoSoParents

I grew up with the WEBN fireworks show for Labor Day. I hadn't been in years, but we landed passes to watch from the Roebling Bridge, and we'd been wanting to share it with the kid, so away we went to visit the grandparents and enjoy the show. What's the special festival or event where you are? #CoSoParents #LaborDay

Are you a food adventurer? I am, at least a little. Here’s todays new to me food adventure: salty egg yolk buns. #CoSoFood

Pokeweed in various phases. Definitely looks like she’s up to no good. #CoSoNature

Thank you all for the reshares and support!

A little saleswoman-ship today: my first-in-series is free on Kindle along with eleven other fantastic superhero books. If you've been meaning to check out the Menopausal Superheroes series, today might be your day: https://superhero-fiction.com/salespage/ #CoSoWriters #CoSoReaders

#CoSoWriters Having a hard time moving forward this week, but with a deadline to meet, can't really just "step away." What works for you when you're not feeling it?

Another walk and MORE MUSHROOMS! Love the lemon yellow on these. #CoSoNature

Pretty pretty mushrooms from today’s walk.

Today would have been the birthday of both my Grandma Liz and her mother, Great Grandma Lena. Here they both are with all the cousins old enough to remember them both.#family

I'm thinking about what it was like to try to have a writing life when the kids were small. A little trip down memory lane (with a humorous bent): https://medium.com/p/f1a5dd9e5299 #CoSoParents #CoSoWriters

Just took this fierce little monster to open house for their junior year of high school. Dang. #CoSoParents

I wish you all could smell my house right now. We made Mogali chicken and tomato rice from this cookbook for lunch today. It was a lot of work, but it was worth it. And I will get to eat it for lunch again tomorrow. #CoSoCooking

A little plantshadow on my path to start your day with beauty.

In cleaning out the garage today, Sweetman and I found a box of swizzle sticks that had belong to his grandmother. I spent some time this afternoon sorting them with the kid, looking up all the places grandma had been. I sincerely hope that the 77 swizzle sticks from The Purple Jester were accumulated one Friday night at a time and not in one horrible bender. #nostalgia #vintage

I always like to start my day with a walk. Everything goes better if I get a little nature first thing. Here’s a brittle stem (fungi) that caught my eye today. So pretty! So tiny! Like a tiny parasol. #CoSoNature
