Image displays a copy of a book titled Primates: The Fearless Science of Dian Fossey, Jane Goodall, and Birute Galdikas. It has a green cover and images of the three women walking in a line with the various primates they studied.

Jane Goodall inspired my daughter to study evolutionary anthropology at uni—& it all started with this book I gifted her over a decade ago.

She texted me tonight absolutely gutted that her idol had passed.

RIP Dr. Goodall. You made a difference. 💔

I got it from jet pens in the US. Not sure where to get it around here. But yes, that would be a good use for it!

Is this not the cutest ruler? 🐈‍⬛😻📏

I got this for my 2026 Hobonichi Hon.

Elderly Austrian nuns break out of nursing home and back into their former convent, defying diocese Three octogenarian nuns have defied their diocese, run away from their nursing home and returned to their former convent in Salzburg, Austria, which they are now occupying.

I would 💯 watch this 🎦

Just finished Grady Hendrix’s, audiobook of Witchcraft for Wayward Girls. Surprisingly enjoyable—even though it’s over 16 hrs & I winced through many graphic descriptions of body horror. 😖

📚: Horrorstör; My Best Friend’s Exorcism; & The Southern Book Club’s Guide To Slaying Vampires.

Amazing! 🍪👩‍🍳

I really do need to get myself organized to submit at least 1 piece for next year.

Congratulations Brooke—well deserved recognition!

Sounds good to me!

Hey book friends—Have you been to the new Indie bookstore in St. Jacob’s, Ontario? It’s called, The Book Loft, & they’ve curated a nice selection of books. I don’t believe they’re on BlueSky, but they are on TikTok.
I went for the first time today, but it certainly won’t be my last!

Okay, I was drawn in and purchased my first Hobonichi Techo planner. I got the Hon. it’s got everything the Cousin has, but comes in hardcover. I also bought the 5-year journal. Thought it would be fun to try.
Got to get back to my planner game in 2026—I let it slide for the last couple of years.

My dream is for it to happen like it does to vampires.

When the leader kicks the bucket, the rest of them burst into flames.

My sweet Asha.

I’m taking the plunge and making the switch from a Passion Planner to a Wonderland222 All-In-One Planner for 2026.
What are some of your favourite planner spread ideas for W222?

Guess who’s got tickets to see Kamala Harris in Toronto in November? 🎉🎉🎉 🙌🏼🙋‍♀️

Neil deGrass Tyson: "How sad it must be believing that scientists, historians, scholars, economists, journalists devoted their entire lives to deceiving you, but a reality-TV star proven in court to be a lying felon is your beacon of truth & honesty"

I despise the RBC AI on both telephone and online banking.

All I had was a simple question about whether or not a service was still provided.

Why can I not talk to a customer service rep in my small town branch anymore on the phone?

July was my lowest reading month so far this year, but I still managed to finish 10 books. The three pictured in the graphic were the best 3 of the bunch.

Arcana Academy by Elisa Kova

I was lucky enough to read an ARC of this from @netgalley.bsky.social in Dec 2024

It was a 5-star read for me. I liked it so much, I bought the hardcover. It’s just been published.

Okay, y’all had me feeling like my collection was paltry compared to all of yours. 🤣😭
So I double checked my @librarything.com catalogue—at last count I had 1733 books. I know I’ve probably added at least a couple hundred since I last scanned them all, so I’m closer to a 2K collection.

I just got approved on @netgalley.bsky.social for the audiobook edition of T. Kingfisher’s Hemlock & Silver!

Love me a T. Kingfisher audiobook 🎧🥰—I just started reading her books this year & she’s become my favourite author of 2025. I’ve finished 6 of her books so far.

10 Famous Book Hoarders Karl Lagerfeld had more books than you.

My husband sent me this link questioning why I’m not on the list—I think this is a challenge. 😂
I have over 1K books 📚🫣 so I’m 1/4 of the way to their “lucky number” & I think my collection would be considered a small library.

Challenge Accepted. 💪

July 2025 Shop Hop is complete!

I’ve driven all over S-W Ontario to 12 different quilt stores in the last 2 weeks to collect each store’s quilt block.

Now it’s time to start assembling my quilt!

Kerisl — “the sorrow of imagining the wealth of knowledge forever lost to history.”

Love this word—I feel this in my bones.

(Definition from the Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows)

The deer flies were swarming yesterday morning during our hike around Petroglyphs Provincial Park. Glad we had the forethought to bring our face netting to keep them off.

It’s a scorcher outside 🥵

We got up early to water the garden & put out some shallow-bottom, wide mouth bowls of water for the birds. Turned my blinds down to keep the cool in & heat out. I’ve got asthma, so I’m hiding inside for the day.

Keep cool as best you can out there my friends.

Middle of the day, hottest day of the year—people in the neighbour are firing up their lawn mowers.

Enjoy your scorched grass neighbours. 🤦‍♀️
