When I was in Krakow in June, a friend and I had syrniki (Polish pancakes) for breakfast and I’ve been thinking about it since. I finally made some for lunch today, and it did not disappoint! Now, will my kids like them?! 🙃 #syrniki #polishpancakes #polishgirl #inmypolishbabciaera #krakow

A little reading and note taking at my favorite Starbucks, and forgot how cozy their oatmeal is! #writers #writerscommunity #writerslife #coffee #starbucks #amwriting #amwritinghistoricalfiction #historicalfiction #debutwriters #debutwriter #luxembourg

I spent much of the day at the Holocaust Museum’s Shapell Center Reading Room in MD researching a very specific place in Luxembourg that is part of the book I’m writing. I grossly underestimated the amount of time I’d need, & got through half a reel of microfilm in almost four hours! Back next week!

Don’t be a grumpy pumpkin! 🎃

There are few things more humbling than middle school math. I took algebra in 9th grade, way back in the 1900s…why is my daughter taking it in 6th grade?!

I fear I’ve done very little writing in the last month or so, just too much happening all at once! Trying to get some editing done tonight, to prepare some pages to share with my writing group. What about you? Do you edit as you write?

Happy World Book Day from my little reading nook! #worldbookday #writers #writerscommunity #writerslife #coffee #starbucks #amwriting #amwritinghistoricalfiction #historicalfiction #debutwriters #debutwriter #writersofinstagram #luxembourg #wwiiluxembourg #writingcommunity

I LOVE a good almond croissant! Since a family-owned bakery is a big part of my book, I’ve had many mentions of various treats, though just realized that I haven’t had croissants in there yet! I should probably add some, yes? What’s your favorite sweet treat? #debutwriter #writingcommunity

Sometimes fun pencils really help the creative writing process, and honestly, I’ve found some really cute ones that I use for notes and edits! This draft is coming along! #writerscommunity #writerslife #amwriting #amwritinghistoricalfiction #debutwriters #debutwriter #luxembourg #wwiiluxembourg

Saw this in a fb group this morning, and it really spoke to me. Maybe need to print it out and frame it for my desk??

My 11 year old is going to a sleepover tonight at her bestie’s house. She asked my husband to stop at cvs and grab some gummy bears and face masks to bring. He came home with gummy bears & masks…she meant skin care masks. I couldn’t stop laughing. She was not amused. These are the strangest times 🤣
