My Challenge is over

..and so is my time off! I am honest, I could take 2 more weeks straight away. It would have been nice to not be sick…

I still enjoyed being off work & being able to do what I want. My challenge could have gone better but in the end I am still happy with what I got done. And most importantly – I enjoyed reading and am out of my slump for good. Hopefully it stays like that.

Spinning Silver / Naomi Novik

The Outsider / Stephen King

Oathbringer / Brandon Sanderson –> 367/1243

The Traitor Baru Cormorant / Seth Dickinson –> 25%

Black Wolves / Kate Elliott –> 63%

Saga Vol. 6 / Brian K. Vaughan & Fiona Staples

I read 3 out of 6 and one is a graphic novel I bought the other day. I thought I would get Black Wolves done for sure, but once I wasn’t so sick anymore I actually left the house a couple of times and did other things 😀

I also did a lot of cooking & baking and watched tons of wrestling. Especially Lucha Underground, because I am a bit in love with Pentagon Jr. I started Season 1 and am now up to episode 7.

We also binge-watched Glow Season 2 and I liked it even more than Season 1, even though there was a lack of Joey Ryan & wrestler cameos in general 😉 It’s great storytelling and I love all the girls and Alison Brie was amazing! Also, Marc Meron is the best and this show has so many funny scenes without actually being a pure comedy. Happy, that Season 3 is coming!

We are looking for a new show to start. Mr. DZ won’t have any sports to watch soon, when footy & golf are over and the cricket hasn’t started yet. We will see what Netflix has to offer. Unfortunately we are both a bit picky and it takes a long time to agree on a show. I’d give Last Kingdom a chance…

Also, it’s THAT time again…

pumpkin-spice-everything

Did you guys have your Pumpkin Spice latte yet? 😀 I am a big fan of pumpkin spice and already had 2 Starbucks coffees….. And I made my own pumpkin spice and want to do syrup again as well. Here, I did pumpkin spice Bread & Butter pudding last week:

  1. I loved Glow!
    I’m starting in on the autumn flavored things. I bought Count Chocula, Frankenberry and Booberry Friday in a MONSTER pack. 😛 But I had Chider yesterday, that’s apple cider plus chai, equals amazing! I might get a pumpkin pie coffee from my favorite independent cafe today. 🙂

  2. That pumpkin spice Bread looks scrumdiddlyumptious! Haven’t yet had my pumpking spice latte, but fall won’t end without me having it. Well, what I get isn’t exactly a latte, I guess, since I don’t like coffee, but that pumpkin spice thingy will be in it. I love the flavor.

  3. I’m not usually a fan of coffee, so I don’t do the PSL. However, fall is when I treat myself to chai lattes instead of regular tea, so I’m looking forward to that! And spiced cider, and pumpkin breads, and pumpkin pie, and… well. Everything except the coffee. 😉

    I’m glad you’re feeling better! I hope the reading continues to go well now that your break is over!
