Friday Finds | 02-28-2025 | Welcome
Hello,
Can you believe we’re already wrapping up February? This month flew by in a blur of fantastic reads, intriguing mysteries, and some delightful recipes (seriously, that “Do Nothing Cake” might just be my new favorite!). As we roll into March, I’ve got a fresh lineup of bookish goodness for you—whether you’re in the mood for fantasy, historical fiction, or a little romance, there’s something here to spark your interest.
This week, I’m featuring a BBNYA finalist, a middle-grade fantasy adventure, a fascinating look at silent films, and much more. Plus, don’t miss the spotlight on independent authors, recipes, and creative finds—there’s even a DIY tulip light kit to brighten up your space while we wait for spring to arrive!
Peace & Love,
Gina

I’ve got a 1940s-era recipe called “Do Nothing Cake” for you today.

If you love the buttery, garlicky flavor of garlic knots, this dish is about to become your new favorite. Skillet Garlic Knot Chicken combines the same irresistible mix of melted butter, garlic, herbs, and Parmesan but with tender, juicy chicken.

I have so many, but organization and general handyman skills would probably be at the top.
I’m drawing for the February winner since today is the last day of the month. All entries received from today until March 27th will be entered in the next drawing.
