Coming Up This Week

I’ve hit a new level of being organized with my blog. For the past few weeks, I’ve been able to be at least one week ahead with my posts. That being said, each Sunday, I will be sharing what blog posts I have scheduled for the coming week.

I always love sneak peeks, and now I get to share them myself!

Monday 13th November

Weekend Review

As I do after each weekend, I’ll share what we got up to, and what was on my little to-do list. This weekend was filled with games and shopping.

Tuesday 14th November

Pumpkin White Chocolate Snickerdoodles

A variation on the classic snickerdoodles, with lots of extra goodies. These are delicious, and I’m happy to share another baking adventure!

Wednesday 15th November

A Walk to the Park

Rory and I went for a walk one sunny evening to the park. As usual, I took lots of photos.

Thursday 16th November

5 Wardrobe Essentials

Going back to basics, I wanted to share five of my wardrobe essentials, and why they are. I don’t know why I narrowed it down to five, but it did make it both more challenging and interesting to write.

Friday 17th November

Winnie The Pooh Quotes

I haven’t done a quotes post in ages, and lately, I’ve had lots of A.A. Milne quotes on my mind. I’ve always loved Winnie the Pooh, and I complied a pile of my favourite quotes from the books.

Saturday 18th November

Car Selfie Adventures

A somewhat random post as I realized going through my gallery that I have taken a lot of selfies in the car over the course of the year. So I thought I’d share a bunch of them.

Sunday 19th November

Ride or Die Tag

I had seen this tag ages ago on blogs, and found it again while going down a Youtube hole. I liked the idea of choosing one product for each category, even though I have a small collection of makeup, this was really fun to do.

These are the posts you can expect to see this week from me! I don’t know if I’ll manage this every week, but it feels doable for me. Like I said, I also just love sneak peeks, so I hope you guys enjoyed this one for my upcoming posts!

That’s all the books I’ve read as part of this challenge. I’m still trying to read more books, I’m figuring out what my goal for next year could be. I’m hoping 30, but that sounds too ambitious. As for the books I’ve already read, I feel like I read a big range. I get bored if I keep reading from the same genre over and over. I’ve never had a favourite one. I like mixing fiction and non-fiction, as well as light, funny books with more serious ones.

What books have you guys been reading lately?
