Happy Sunday to you. I hope you are having a good day wherever you are--I'm a bit behind on my reading because this week I spend a lot of time on social media reading and watching how Ukraine is doing. I pray they prevail. 

Thursday I went and got Paczki because this Thursday is Fat Thursday in Poland (and parts of Germany and other countries in the region) My favorites are the Glazed Raspberry.  On the box it says:

Each Country calls it something different. In Germany, It's a Berliner. In Romania, it's called Gogosi, and in Ukraine, they call it a Pampushky. Where we live there are a lot of Polish Immigrants so we have many paczki options!

Happy Valentine's Day to You! 
I recycled a Cheryl's Cookies box to package up the Hubs Valentine's Day present.  I got him Four Sigmatic Mushroom Coffee we will see if it lives up to their ad which says it doesn't taste like mushrooms...

The halfway point of February is here and this is the point of winter where my attempts to find the beauty in Winter fades away.  Ugh. snow, slush, sliding, cold air, cold wind, cold face, cold feet, and dry inside air. If I could go somewhere warm and sunny for a week to recharge I would go but that is definitely not going to happen this year--maybe in 2022?  That would be so refreshing. 

Well back to Valentine's Day, I hope you feel the love today!  I plan to give some chocolate to the kids and eat some myself! 

Upcoming this week-
Tomorrow I'll be talking about Paczki Day and reviewing Blood Heir by Ilona Andrews
Wednesday I'll be sharing a recipe from Real Simple for Spicy Chicken and Polenta along with a review of a fun upcoming book called Yoga Pant Nation.
Friday I'll be sharing a Cozy Mystery Book Club review of Crime & Punctuation

Are you celebrating Valentine's Day today?  What about Mardi Gras on Tuesday?

Grab your planner and make a note to celebrate some of these special February Days:
Groundhog Day is Feb 2 --and it's also Ukulele Day!
Feb 4th is Thank a Mail Carrier Day! 
Feb 12th is the Lunar New Year and also Galentine's Day
Feb 14th - of course- Is Valentine's Day
The 16th is Mardi Gras AKA Fat Tuesday or Paczki Day
That means Feb 17th is Ash Wednesday but take heart-
Feb 18th is Drink Wine Day! 

Be sure to come back to my blog tomorrow because I'll have a review up of "The Russian Cage" by Charlaine Harris! 

The whole month is Black History Month so if you need a push make a plan to spend time each week learning some Black History. As someone who likes podcasts let me recommend Uncivil by Gimlet Media. It's a short series and each episode included book recommendations.  

Question of the Day- Do you use a planner? Or do you like to wing it?
