Monday Early Bird Book Releases – 02-28-2022

HAPPY MONDAY EVERYONE!!! I hope this will be an amazing start to March, and happy birthday to all the leap year babies!! 😀

The first “leap year” person I ever knew was when I was about 7 or 8 years old. He was the lifeguard at our public pool (his name was Heydan… or Aiden? I can’t remember?). My older sister had a crush on him (they were around the same age so that was fine). He explained to me what leap year was, and for the rest of my life, at the end of every February I think about him. I remember he was only “five years old” the year I met him. LOL!!! I could NOT wrap my head around that when he was obviously, what looked like an adult to me.

THREE THINGS:

1.) I cooked a Mississippi Pot Roast this weekend (with potatoes and green beans), but I didn’t use the right “roast”. It should have been pork shoulder or something fatty and shreddable, but I used my pork tenderloin roast, and it was good but not great. *sigh*

2.) I had a great weekend. Peaceful, and silly, and lots of listening to music. Also another episode of Pam and Tommy.

3.) My boyfriend made us an amazing melty-cheeeeeesy (cheddar curd cheese) omelette yesterday for breakfast. He’s always cooking for me, and he’s amazing at it. I miss him already.
