About

Hello there! I’m a bit late to the blog party–I’ve enjoyed reading blogs for quite awhile, but just recently decided to take the proverbial plunge and join the fun.

I’m a woman living in the Midwestern U.S. who loves books, reading, writing, cooking, eating, reading while eating, and sharing thoughts about all of the above–plus a bit more!

I’m currently on my third career. I was a high school teacher for nine years–then I worked in the retail book business for seven years–and now I’ve been in educational publishing since 2001. I feel that this is where I was meant to be–it’s a great mix of “teacher stuff” and “book stuff”!

Some random things about me–
–I have multiple bookshelves in every room of my home except the bathroom. They’re all filled to bursting. They help to make my house my home.
–I have two cats who I love dearly, but who I definitely do NOT dress in human clothing. Ever.
–I’ve never had a cavity.
–I make a mean spaghetti sauce.
–I’m a newcomer to yoga and I love it.
–My day is not complete without a little chocolate.

I’m planning to use this blog to write about bookish things during the week, and about other topics on the weekends–this plan is, of course, subject to change at any time. You’re welcome to come along and join me!
