When my sister gives me a book, “The Bride Collector”, and tells me NOT to read it at night, if I want to sleep! But now my curious mind wants to read it.
When you are given a lot of blackberries … Time to make sweet, blackberry cobbler.
When you fall in love at first sight … Held my great-niece today….Welcome to the world Aurora Paige!

Blackberry cobbler sounds delish!
I hope you don’t read that book by night, lol! You’ll be having nightmares if you do!

Thanks Carol! She was like a little china doll. ❤
I am already hungry for it. 🙂
I probably will start reading it and then stop. LOL! We will see.

If you come all the way here for cobbler, we may even treat you to a meal before the cobbler.

The poor kid looks scared to death. Were you reading “The Bride Collector” to her?

I doubt that. It probably had a full diaper. It’s more likely you were in awe of her.
That’s the problem with babies. They possess a special, magical charm that can melt the hardest of hearts. They hypnotically cast us under their spell, and then we become their servants for the rest of their lives.

And yes, I was in awe of her. 🫠
They definitely do cast a spell!

I sure hope my son and his wife decide to have children. My grandpa clock is ticking.

I bite my tongue, even though I think they may decide not to have children. This is especially hard for me because our son has always indicated he wanted kids, but they will have to make that important decision for what works best for them.
I’ve worked hard at my fitness, so I wouldn’t become that grandpa who couldn’t get off the couch and have fun with his grandkids.

I want all of those things in this specific order: 1) Baby!!!!! I go ga-ga over babies! 2) Blackberry cobbler. I like blackberries but I’ve never known how to do anything with them except eat them as they are. 3) The book. It sounds like the kind of book I would like to read, but I do not need another book in my 500+ to be read book pile. Although, just so you know, by the end of September, I will have read 134 books for my 130 goal this year. And I still have three more months to go!

Babies are simply adorable, aren’t they! You just have to love them. ❤️
Blackberry cobbler is so yummy, especially with some vanilla ice-cream on top. 😋
Wow on bypassing your reading goal already! 👏 ! Maybe you will reach 200. 😉
I will let you know how the book is. I plan to start it today. I don’t usually read many scary books, but I am enjoying this author, and his stories have depth to them.
