Summer Books

I was downstairs looking for a few drawing books that we've been looking for for years. Well, when you're looking for something you're bound to be distracted by one other thing you find. I found a few boxes filled with old books. I began to grab all of the books that looked interesting to me.

I now have a summer reading list! (Summer break begins next week for me.)



I found all but one of The Little House On The Prairie books, LOTR series, Swiss Family Robinson, Sherlock Holmes, Pippi Longstocking, Emma, The Scarlet Letter, Oliver Twist, Pride and Prejudice, Ben Hur, and a few others that I have never heard of. I fear that I may not get to all of them this summer, but I'll try. I may "review" them, create some fan art, or something unexpected while reading these books. I hope you're as excited as I am.

Where do you think I should start?

Pretzels

Well hello there! It has been a while since I've posted. Today I have been obsessing over pretzels. Mom tried some Pretzel M&Ms, which is amazing. She thought the idea was absurd. She actually liked them. Next step is to get her to try chocolate covered pretzels!



I personally have never had these types of pretzels. They look so good, though. Check out the recipe here on Dizzy Swallows' blog.

I love chocolate covered pretzels! Find the recipe at Our Best Bites here.

And here are a few more pretzel recipes that I intend to make in the near future.

































I am so thankful for pretzels. Hopefully I can try out these recipes and you'll enjoy them.

God bless you!
