Category: Sunday Salon / Sunday Post

Trying something new. I have been missing my Feel Good Fridays (The blog that used to sponsor the meme has moved on to other things.) so I thought I would try this and see how it goes. The Sunday Salon used to be a meme but was getting so huge it became unmanageable, so it is now a Facebook group that has become an informal week in review gathering place for bloggers. It is also a place to share our thoughts about things of a bookish nature. So Happy Sunday Everyone! This is what Dollycas has been up to this past week!!!

The best thing of the week was my daughter-in-law’s baby shower yesterday. Friends and family together to celebrate. I can’t believe my granddaughter will be here in just a few weeks. Grandpa and Grandma are really excited to become grandparents for the second time!!

On the blog last week, I was thrilled to have Denise Swanson stop by for Cozy Wednesday, host a Virtual Tour for God and Fathers by James LePore, plus three other reviews. Several Giveaways ended. The Spring Cleaning Giveaway Hop ends today. You can find all of my Open Giveaways here.

I only received one book last week. I can’t wait to get to it.

Stay Close

My April Calendar is packed full of Guest Posts, Giveaway Hops and Blog Tours so I will be busy bunny this Spring!

Happy Reading Everyone!!

Hard to believe a week ago Wisconsin was buried in snow and now it is all gone and warmer temps are coming around.

It was a busy week with two authors guest posting, a virtual blog tour and a bunch of new books released on Tuesday.

Monday I hosted the Virtual Blog Tour for Doxology by Brian Holers. I came in second in the Blog Traffic Breaker Poll.

Sharon Pape was here for Cozy Wednesday. I am still bursting with joy because my review was quoted on the Praise Page in her new book. My first time being published like that.

Then on Thursday, Rebecca M. Hale stopped by to talk about her new book Adrift on St. John. Giveaways on both books are still open.

This was also the week that the UPS man brought all the review copies of the cozies coping out April 3.

I also downloaded 5 free e-books!

I am definitely a Book Addict but have no desire to be cured. Just need more hours in the day to read 🙂

I hope you all have a wonderful Sunday!!

Last Sunday I had picked out a good book, Sketch a Falling Star by Sharon Pape and lined up some snacks and a soda and turned on the television to watch the Daytona 500, then spent the day reading and watching it rain in Florida. The race was postponed until Monday night. I did watch the Oscars but was not overly excited about the show this year. The book however was really good!

Monday was spent blogging and reading until race time. The race was crazy with wrecks and even a fire but my all time favorite driver Matt Kenseth won The Great Race for the second time!! I hope he does as well today in PHOENIX!!

The rest of the week was spent wrapping up the month of February, I had read 18 books and am doing really well on my challenges.

On Thursday I featured a brand new Wisconsin Author Jolyn Palliata and her book Amber Eyes. I was surprised how much I liked this book when paranormal isn’t one of my favorite genres. You can enter the giveaway for a copy of the book here.

I did receive two books in the mail this week that I can wait to get at!!

I also spent some awesome time with my grandson yesterday. His imagination is priceless. An ordinary stick became a magic wand and he turned grandma into everything from a frog to a mama lion to a grandma MONSTER!!! Grandma was pretty tired by the time his mom came to pick him up but we had had so much fun!!

Oh yes, how could I forget, Winter has come back to Wisconsin with a pretty nice blizzard on Friday. Thankfully not storms like they had down south, but when you hear thunder during a snow storm you know Mother Nature means business!!!

I hope you all have a wonderful Sunday. Please leave some comments telling me about your week!!
