What I've Been Reading:
Last week, my husband, Mark and I traveled to Cobleskill, NY to visit family. While there, we also located and visited some Little Free Libraries.
This Little Free Library was well stocked with adult books.

This adorable Little Free Library matched the owner's home. It was well stocked with mostly children's books! Yay!

One of the books I'm "reading with my ears."
What I've Been Writing:
This past week, I've been drafting a few poems. One of them is about autumn and all of the great things that are part of my favorite season.
We had a beautiful, Saturday morning of apple picking.

What I've Been Loving:
I am totally in love with my new Christian Robinson pillow from Target.
The pillow coordinates so well with my library card pillows.

What I've Been Learning:
While driving through the sweet, little town of Cherry Valley, NY, my husband, Mark and I discovered the wonderful, used bookstore named for the town. Although we didn't have much time to spend in the store, I certainly found a lot of treasures! I purchased an original copy of Charlotte's Web and The Little Princess, and a Mother Goose collection from 1943! (I collect Mother Goose books, ephemera, and toys). I love to learn about bookstores and little free libraries!
An amazing used bookstore in Cherry Valley, NY.
