Our most recent family road-trip was a weekend in St. Andrews. We were up with the birds on all the days. We actually loaded the car on Friday, after a coffee with my Dad in honor of my Grandma’s birthday, and I (humbly?) shouted from the blog-tops about the Annual Bloggers Bash Awards. Baked potatoes and cheese for breakfast on the road, which Isla and I actually paraded in front of cheese-phobic Neil. (She may look like him, but she’s…

And so, I’ve said before that book-mail is the best kind of mail. But yesterday I GOT THE BEST BOOK-MAIL. I was a big mope until My Chronicle Book Box arrived, and with it came the sun. Honestly, look at the bookish grooviness: And feast your eyes, fellow book geeks. 3 books I DON’T ALREADY HAVE… The books: Murder At The Mill, M.B.
