Things that make me happy, even on a Monday:
1. The House at Tyneford by Natasha Solomons. Oh my goodness, this book! I stayed up until 2:30 in the morning finishing it, and it’s already been passed around the women of my family. If you love Downton Abbey, you’ll love this one (World War II instead of World War I, but same themes).
2. Board games. I get pretty competitive, but they’re a perfect rainy day weekend activity.
3. Baking. I want to bake something this week. Something warm and cinnamony, so I can feel like it’s fall. Any suggestions?
4. The Bourne Legacy. I’m not much of an action movie fan, but every once in a while, they’re so fun. This one was pretty entertaining.
5. Gilmore Girls. Anytime I need a pick-me-up, this show does the trick. The dialogue, the characters, Jess to swoon over—love it.
Happy Monday, everyone! Anything making you happy this week?

Baking and board games? Sounds like my version of a perfect day.
ReplyDeleteOooh, how about some yummy pumpkin bread or pumpkin muffins? Anything pumpkin screams fall to me :)
ReplyDeleteI am long overdue for a Gilmore Girls marathon. I always seem to feel in the mood for it in the fall. And I agree with Gina: anything pumpkin feels super fall-ish to me too! :D
ReplyDeleteAHHH I have been thinking more and more about the Gilmore Girls lately. I NEED to invest in the DVDs of this series. Like, ASAP.

I really need to see the new Bourne movie. I heard it's awesome.
ReplyDeleteHow about oatmeal raisin cookies with chocolate chips too? Because you can never have enough chocolate.
Yes to cinnamon baked goods! I did that last month too!
ReplyDeleteHave you read THE HOUSE AT RIVERTON? It's a period drama and quite fantastic - you mentioning THE HOUSE AT TYNEFORD made me think of that!
ReplyDeleteI love Downton Abbey! I'll have to check out that book. I would suggest cinnamon pull-apart bread. That always makes the house smell like October! :D
ReplyDeleteI always love me some Gilmore Girls! I miss watching re-runs!! Hmm fall baking is such a treat! So cozy! I always go for pumpkin bread and cinnamon rolls.
