No Words

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 26 Comments/ 537

If you are like me the event that took place in Uvalde, Texas on Tuesday shook you to your core. Another mass shooting. More innocent lives taken. Parents who did not get to say goodbye to their babies. And yes, they were babies. I think Continue reading →

A Puzzling Teapot Tuesday

Beth Ann Chiles/ Tea and Teapots/ 18 Comments/ 367

Teapot Tuesday is a puzzler today. Or rather….a puzzle. Thanks to my sister, Paula, I now am the proud owner of a tea lovers puzzle crafted by Creative Crafthouse. It is a beautiful work of art, actually, and I am not a great puzzler but Continue reading →

Grumpy

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 36 Comments/ 441

I‘ve been a bit grumpy this week. I admit it. I have not been easy to live with. I have snapped and grumbled. Growled and huffed and puffed. I don’t know why but this week just wasn’t my favorite week. There is no reason other Continue reading →

Beth Ann Chiles/ North Carolina, Photography, Travel/ 14 Comments/ 444

Chris plans the best days for me and he planned a day on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Not all of the higher elevations are leafed out fully yet but it was still a fabulous drive and a great day. The rhododendron are beautiful and the Continue reading →

Stand Out

I read a little book that is not the typical type of book that I normally read. Sometimes it is good to break out of a rut and stretch and this book definitely did that for me. Two people recommended it and since It was Continue reading →

The Good Girl

The Good Girl
by Mary Kubica
I loved this book! It had my interest from the very first page and was my "airplane" book on a recent trip. Author Mary Kubica created believable and interesting characters that the reader learned to identify with and care about. Mi...

An Abundance of Katherines
by John Green
Another great book by John Green. I have become a huge fan of John Green since my reading of A Fault in our Stars and this book was another that did not disappoint me at all. It was a story of a child prodigy, a lot of anagrams, and a b...
