At long last, summer has returned! Things are shaping up to be busy, but fun. After a stretch of books that I picked up but did not finish, I grabbed the Luckiest Girl Alive from the library this week. It's not exactly what I thought, I can't stand the main character, but it's got enough… Continue reading WIP Wednesday and Summer Startitis

FO Friday Dimetrodon
This summer I'm participating in the Planet June Dinosaur Crochet-A-Long.

My mom read it and spoke highly of it. We also found a pile of dinosaur related books. I didn't have a dinosaur… Continue reading A Lot of Dinosaurs
