Book Review: The Chaperone

Book Review: The Chaperone

Book Review: The Chaperone by Laura Moriarty 4 stars out of 5 No big surprise here that I liked this book as much as I did with my love of 20s history and all. The story was centered more around Cora, the chaperone, instead of Louise Brooks. If you want to read about Louise there are plenty … [Read more...]

Book Review: An American Bride in Kabul

An American Bride in Kabul by Phyllis Chesler 2 1/2 stars out of 5 For me, I thought it needed to be fleshed out more. I wanted more detail. More history of why things are this way. Where does it stem from? I'm sure that is a longer book though. She was only there 10 weeks so I don't feel … [Read more...]

Book Review: Boardwalk Empire: The Birth, High Times, and Corruption of Atlantic City

Boardwalk Empire: The Birth, High Times, and Corruption of Atlantic City by Nelson Johnson 3 1/2 stars out of 5 I don't gamble. I've never been to Atlantic City. I hated Vegas the one time I went. Why did I read this book then? Because I loved the HBO series of the same name. I'm a sucker for … [Read more...]

For the 1st time, I finally purchased the Advent c For the 1st time, I finally purchased the Advent calendar in December from @lettersandlattesllc.

I opened each day up to a cool pen surprise. However, I'm just now getting to actually play with them and do the swatch card she includes, and watching each video for the style of lettering with that pen on the card. 

This was such a cool way to try out new pens. There was only 1 out of 24 that I had tried before so that meant 22 new pens and 1 new pencil for me! And that is saying a lot becuase I have hundreds of pens and pencils in my collection! Great packaging as well. I didn't spoil the surprise and open them all as soon as I got them but waitied for each day. Can't wait for the 2026 version.

Hey y'all! I'm Karen, a Gulf Coast of Florida based purveyor of Southern sass. I'm an Indiana Jones & Anthony Bourdain wannabe.

It's been said I'm a little bit country and a little bit rock 'n roll. Read More…
