Hi friends!
As is now tradition, I spent the last couple days of vacation feeling a strange throat tickle coming on. Despite my delusional hope of it being allergies, I was proven wrong and it's now a full blown cold that's stripped me of my voice and general willpower.
I've spent the last few days alternating between napping, binge watching Survivor, and reading. (Today I finally finished Be My Guest and I hesitate to say it's going to be one of my favorite reads of the year........................., hesitation over, I think it will be one of my top reads of the year. Would highly recommend, especially if you love essay-style musings or are interested in food and generosity and exploring those in a global context.)
I did also manage to finish another dragon egg dice bag! This time a small teal one for myself:

(Photo taken from the couch, where I've been for the past four days straight.)
Even though I still sometimes sound like a frog that swallowed another frog, I am feeling a bit better! Well enough to come up with a little questionnaire for y'all surrounding our Crafts & Drafts book club selections for this year. :) It should be linked above, but you can also find it here if not.
I also checked in on the results for the first writing experiment of the year and was pleasantly surprised that y'all picked the least evil option!!! Bahaha.
Initially I planned on doing a version by myself first, but instead, I think we're going to test this out together! THIS SATURDAY at 3:45pm CST. (Not only do I feel like I'll be better by then, but I've reached the point of boredom where I DESPERATELY want to be off the couch bahaha. So this will be perfect.)
Then I'll do another version by myself to truly test things out and/or tweak anything I'd like for the experiment. I'm really excited to see how this turns out! I think it's going to be great.
Hope y'all have been feeling well! Hope the words are flowing! And if you're celebrating, hope you have a wonderful Lunar New Year! :)
Thanks friends and happy writing!
