Oh Helene…

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 8 Comments/ 585

Chris and I just got home from our extended vacation and our trip home from Chincoteaque, Virginia was longer than anticipated but we made it home. Thanks to torrential rain about 2 hours from home, our trip was slower than hoped and of course we Continue reading →

We Ain’t Got Moxy

Beth Ann Chiles/ Travel/ 7 Comments/ 509

It all started off badly with an elevator in the parking garage that did not work. We schlepped our suitcases down from the 5th level. Fortunately we only had one small suitcase each and a backpack or briefcase but whew. It was a workout. We Continue reading →

Lighting Up on Teapot Tuesday

Beth Ann Chiles/ Tea and Teapots/ 31 Comments/ 4704

No, no, no –not that kind of lighting up!  Lighthouses are one of my favorite things to go see when we are on an adventure and I have several large lighthouse teapots in my collection.  Since we are on a bit of a lighthouse tour Continue reading →

We are spending this week in my happy place, Lakeside, Ohio. Of course I have shared my love of everything Lakeside many times over the years and nothing really changes but it is still the best week of the year for me when my siblings Continue reading →

I Was Meant to Be Here

Beth Ann Chiles/ Tea and Teapots/ 8 Comments/ 419

I was meant to be here. And by here I mean in a rental home at Lakeside, Ohio on Lake Erie. Why? Because they have teapots – lovely teapots like I collect that bring me joy. Just look at these beauties that are lining the Continue reading →

Walking on the Floor of the Ocean

Beth Ann Chiles/ Travel/ 5 Comments/ 425

One of the things that we wanted to do with Theo when we went to Nova Scotia was to visit the Bay of Fundy and walk on the ocean floor. We went to Burntcoat Head Park where the highest tidal change ever was recorded at Continue reading →

Clear as Day

Beth Ann Chiles/ Travel/ 5 Comments/ 390

Sometimes I really wonder about myself. Let me rephrase that. Lots of times I worry about myself. The rental house we stayed in in Nova Scotia was unique. It was the winner of a big architectural award when it was built in the 1990’s and Continue reading →

The Art of Social Media: Power Tips for Power Users
by Guy Kawasaki
As always Guy Kawasaki has a great book with great information about all things social media. I highlighted tons of places in this book and it is definitely one that I will come back to time and time again to help me in all of the socia...
Old Girls in Low Cotton

Old Girls in Low Cotton
by Helen Childress
This short book was one that looked like it would be a fun read. I honestly did not enjoy it all that much---it was a lot of characters bickering and while some of the writing was witty and funny it was not that kind of book that made m...
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...

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...

5 of 5 stars
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...
