Greetings from the cave! 2022 is only a few hours away, hard that it is to believe. I feel like 2021 has not gone that fast, but not that slow either. I feel like in 2021, I was starting to regain myself after the weird year of 2020. Even still, it has been in baby steps. I think the best part of 2021 was slowly...

 Greetings from the cave! A very merry Christmas season to you all! Before I bring my Yearly Wrap-ups, I'd like to publish these two Christmas tags....which have been waiting very patiently since LAST Christmas to be completed! The first Christmas Tag came from Sam @ Bookshire, and you can view the original tag HERE. 1) A favorite Christmas tradition?Christmas baking! Every year, my family and I...

 Greetings from the cave! I've always thought that November was a bit of a humdrum month. Things are slowing down, weather is getting colder, and holidays are coming soon. For some reason, I'm looking forward to winter this year - be nice to actually see some snow for a change. But was November really all that humdrum?

And a very very long time has elapsed since then.So, what exactly IS going on with TWR?Well...I've only made...

Greetings from the cave! (And a happy All Saints Day!)This was one year that I can echo Anne Shirley and say that "I am glad that there are Octobers". With the change in season came a change in the state of mind. Finally, things are starting to move - and in many ways, good ones. Shall we see what October brought me? - I recently...

 Greetings from the cave!Today's tale is one of adventure, fun, and camaraderie. For today, I shall relate the adventures of Lia, Megan Chappie, and myself as we experienced the Ohio Rennaisance Festival. (Granted, this post is quite late, as we went on our adventures quite close to Hobbit Day. Oh well, such is the life of a grad student.)Now, like all good adventures, it required...

 Greetings and salutations! Well, the leaves are changing already and I'm getting into the hot tea and sweaters. And I am so ready for it!! Apples, pumpkins, all the soup, all the yummy things! But I suppose I should give summer one last hoorah before I officially welcome fall...- I read a review copy of Staying Here by Lena Claire Cook (formally known as Lena...

 Greetings from the cave! I have been wanting to do this post for a while. Matter of fact, I think I have started this post a couple of times (it always gets deleted though...). Normally, I like to ruminate on these kinds of posts for a while and refine my arguments. But since I'm running so close on my time to submit it to the...
