Deal with the Devil – Kit Rocha

Leave a Comment / At Home, Reading / Megan

I’m mildly annoyed with myself, for no good reason. I thought this had been a free Kindle deal, and was happy that I’d found one I actually enjoyed. And it turns out I paid for it, so I’m guess I’m annoyed that I know my own tastes and paid for a book I’d enjoy. I’m

Front bed

Garden Notes

Leave a Comment / At Home, Gardening / Megan

The front bed is clear of its winter leaf bed, and holy god are there a lot of maple seedlings! I always expect to see some, but I swear, it’s a regular carpet right now. I don’t remember a bumper crop of helicopters last year, but there apparently was one.

Dahlia greenhouse

Garden Notes

Leave a Comment / At Home, Gardening / Megan

Things are coming together. It’s warming up (like we left the heat off overnight a few nights this week.) I’ve got the hose out, and today, I set up the dahlia greenhouse. I need to check on the dahlias and see if they’re waking up yet. I don’t want them out until sometime in May,

Magic Binds – Ilona Andrews

Leave a Comment / At Home, Reading / Megan

I’ve got to get better at reading series more closely together. Since I’ve been reformatting all my old blog posts, I’ve seen how far behind I am in this series, which is really silly, because we own all the books. This book makes no sense if you haven’t read everything that’s come before – there

A Sorceress Comes to Call – T. Kingfisher

Leave a Comment / At Home, Reading / Megan

Loved this book – it’s a great mash up of fairy tale (The Goose Girl) and Regency novels. (Per the author – I’d give a gothic horror edge as well, so a bit of Northanger Abbey.) Cordelia’s mother Evangelina is a sorceress, and has used her power in the past to have men take care

Seed starting

Garden Notes

Leave a Comment / At Home, Gardening / Megan

I planted up two of the three peppers today, and the zinnias. I’m trying to get things planted up as soon as they get true leaves – one of the peppers hasn’t reached that yet, and the talinum and gem marigolds are still very small. I gave up on the sweet peas and nigella. The
