As Told By Felicia

I have read SO many good books since my last Recent Reads post ! I was on a huge reading binge this month, and a lot of that is thanks to using my library! I am obsessed with using my Overdrive app and I even checked out a bunch of physical books. My bank account (and husband) are so grateful that I have gotten into this money-saving habit.  Mixed Blessings by Danielle Steele  This book is an oldie- it was written in 1995 I believe, but I came across it when searching for books featuring stories about infertility.

I find with me, it's all or nothing. discovering new kitchen gadgets that I'm obsessing over. I was watching one of my favorite YouTubers the other day and she had an entire dedicated video about kitchen gadgets . Did you know a grape cutter was a thing? Or freezer bag holder? So exciting. You know you're an adult when you get stoked about attachable strainers, folks.  consuming I might be taking this one too li
