An innocent question we are often asked. Well, the layman version is “What kind of books do you read” and I have to answer that at every family gathering. There is no right or wrong answer. We're allowed to enjoy several genres, even ALL genres if we want to! Why not? No one will smack… Continue reading The Pub Corner: You Don’t Put Meggy in a Box
I am back! The WordPress log-in page feels unfamiliar, the administration board looks complicated and ominous, my fingers can't find the right keys on the board. This is it. I have lost the habit of blogging. Okay, enough with the drama-queen act. I can't believe I haven't posted in more than a week neither have… Continue reading Hello Stranger…
Is it just me or did the shortest month of the year felt like the longest one? I am under the impression so much happened this month that there were really 90 days to February rather than the usual 28. Maybe it is just my brain trying to hold on to the winter by secretly… Continue reading February 2017 Wrap-Up
Books aren’t the only ones having to live up to expectations. This is me explaining why the blog suffered from a lack of posts recently, so you don't have to read it! I have been blogging for more than a year. I’m still not over it. I can’t believe it’s been twelve months since my… Continue reading Meet Quality Pressure
While the rest of the world was celebrating the beginning of a new year at midnight, I blew the candle standing proudly on my home-made madeleine to wish Chocolate'n'waffles' Blog a happy first blogiversary! (Cakes are too 2016 so I decided to go with the new hype, 😋) Thanks so much to all of my… Continue reading Chocolate’n’Waffles turns 1!
It feels weird to write a post about your birthday, a bit self-centered, but I'll live with it. I don’t want to pressure you into wishing me a happy birthday and sending me cake, although the cake would be appreciated. But it’s that time of the month. No, not that time. The “Let’s Get Personal”… Continue reading 26 Turning 9
Around 3am last night, I was looking for a distraction from my usual flow of middle-of-the-night thoughts when my mind reminded me I had missed my usual Wednesday night blogging party. Oh dread, Oh infamy! My sacred weeknight had been sacrificed. My precious time devoted to writing posts and commenting on the hundred WWW/This Week… Continue reading List #1 : What Keeps Me From Posting More Regularly
I am taking a break in commenting and reading all the Wednesday post to inform you of a very important change in my life. (You can't know this because I am typing, but I am using my most formal voice right now) This morning, I received confirmation my wish has been granted! For my final… Continue reading Life Update
April is the month I catch up with all I've left behind, starting with tags! I was nominated by the banana-good Orang-Utan Librarian, thank you! ❤ The Rules: Mention the creator of the tag (Ayunda @ Tea and Paperbacks). Thank the blogger who tagged you! Choose one of the options, you don’t have to tell… Continue reading This or That Tag
This post won't be long. I don't have much energy left. (This sounds so dramatic!) This last week has been hectic. As I am writing these lines, I don't even know what day it is. In brief: my mom is staying with us, Hubby is working almost 24/7 and I got a new job. No… Continue reading (Late) This Week In Books / My Life (March 10th 2016)
