Take a break. Take a deep breath and just take a break. That’s exactly what I plan to do for the next ten days or so. I have thought about this a lot over the past few days and decided that that is exactly what Continue reading →

Beth Ann Chiles/ Tea and Teapots/ 12 Comments/ 586

Tea ball.  Tea strainer. Tea infuser. There are many names for a similar item and today on Teapot Tuesday I thought I would share a few of my own fun tea infusers. A tea infuser is an essential part of brewing loose tea which is Continue reading →

How Full is Your Bucket?

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 18 Comments/ 1082

We visited Faith Memorial Chapel for the last time of the season due to our travel schedule. I must admit it made us both a little bit sad. It has been a wonderful summer retreat for us and one where we felt that we were Continue reading →

Maksim Turns Four!

Beth Ann Chiles/ Animals/ 34 Comments/ 559

Maksim turns four years old today and it is time to celebrate. This cat has brought us so much happiness – it is ridiculous. His antics keep us (and the internet) amused and I can’t imagine what we did before he arrived. Holly, on the Continue reading →

Would You Wear It?

Beth Ann Chiles/ Products/ 26 Comments/ 643

When I was in Atlanta with Ann we did a bit of shopping on the way to the hotel. Of course we had to look at shoes because it’s us. Shoes stores are a part of any shopping trip. It is just the way it Continue reading →

Beth Ann Chiles/ Tea and Teapots/ 22 Comments/ 481

I shared yesterday that I recently visited the High Museum in Atlanta and one of the things that I sought out was any teapot that they had included in any collection. There were quite a few and they were all different. Some were called “punch Continue reading →

My BFF Ann and I spent a few days in Atlanta and one of the things we ticked off our to do list was to visit the High Museum of Art on Peachtree St NE. The great thing about museums is that they open the Continue reading →

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...

All the Light We Cannot See
by Anthony Doerr
This is quite a book! I had it recommended to me by several people and while I thought it might be a little dark and depressing it made me have a better understanding of what life in this time period was like. The strength of the huma...

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...
