August

August has arrived. The weather has been all over the place- cool mornings, reduced humidity, not quite so hot, some showers. I have been playing some golf, some pickleball, even played badminton one afternoon. Done some baking. Make cinnamon rolls using Biscoft
recommended by @ILOC a food blog that I follow. Biscoft is a cookie crumb spread so instead of using cinnamon sugar I used that inside the rolls. Yummy!
The rolls after final rise. I also tried to make naan. It was fairly easy and I was able to freeze some.
Making zucchini bread and blueberry lemon bread for Sunday. I have read several really good books. Mexican Gothic- not my usual genre- eerie, paranormal, interesting. Firekeeper's Daughter- YA selection which was very good. Held my attention. Dealt with some tough topics- drug addiction, harassment, racial discrimnation. Still working on the Bridgerton series. I think I am on book 7. Currently reading The Bookshop of Lost and Found (Wiggs). Pretty good so far.
Getting ready for my annual book club weekend in September. I discovered Book Junkie Bingo and ordered ( after a group survey) A Fall of Marigolds to read and play bingo. Should be fun
a book that has been on my TBR for awhile. Always a fun time as my group plans for the upcoming year. We are hopeful that we won't have to do any Zoom meetings. Fingers crossed.
