Loreena McKennitt

Leave a Comment / Arts, Music / Megan

We went to a local concert for the first time in forever last night – Loreena McKennit was back at the Merrill Auditorium in Portland. This is our third time seeing her there, and it was another great night. The tour is officially for the 30th anniversary of The Visit, but she also played some […]

Leave a Comment / At Home, Reading / Megan

It’s funny – I recently happened upon a post on Reddit talking about the Rivers of London books, and asking if it was worth continuing, because they were finding Peter to be so immature in the early books. Which reminded me that I still needed to finish the last book (so far) in the series.

Knitting Notes

Leave a Comment / At Home, Knitting / Megan

It’s been a while since I’ve done a Knitting Note post – this shawl kicked my butt, in the best way. I’ll do a more detailed post once it’s blocked, but the knitting is actually done. I’m actually feeling a bit adrift. It took me a while to really get going with this, and due

Leave a Comment / At Home, Reading / Megan

We pick up Zinnia’s story after A Spindle Splintered. She’s gotten a bit of a remission from her terminal diagnosis, and is using her newly opened up time to rescue other Sleeping Beautys from their fates across the fairy tale multiverse. And then one day, she finds herself in a Snow White story instead. I
