This Week on the Website – Friday Finds October 11, 2019

I reviewed two incredible fiction books. One is contemporary fiction, the other a historical fiction novel. I highly recommend them both.

First up is The After Days by Amy Ginsburg.

This book almost defies placing it into a genre. Is it a psychological thriller, dystopian fiction, a survivalist tale? I think it’s all those and more. Please check it out and let me know what you think.

Next, I reviewed Then Came Darkness by D. H. Schleicher.

What a dark, gripping, intense tale. An entire family struggles to survive the vengeance of a psychotic killer that has planned his revenge for years.

Recipes of the Week – Friday Finds October 11, 2019

Rebecca from Strength and Sunshine is kind enough to share her recipe for Gluten-Free Pumpkin Mug Cake (Vegan, Allergy-Free) with us this week. She has a lovely website that offers so much goodness. If you visit, please tell her I sent you!

 

 

Oven-Baked Salmon: This tender, flaky baked salmon recipe, topped with a parmesan herb crust. A simple, flavorful 6-ingredient dish! Sommer brings this delicious recipe you from A Spicy Perspective.

 

Since cooler weather is finally upon us in the US, how about a Hearty Brown Lentil and Vegetable Soup made in the Instant Pot/Pressure Cooker. This recipe comes from Meeta at Piping Pot Curry. Yum, I can’t wait to try this one.

 

What to Make – Friday Finds October 11, 2019

 

I lost a dear friend to breast cancer this week. I think this wreath is a perfect way to honor survivors as well as those that have passed. This is an affiliate link, I debated removing the link but decided it would be more fitting to leave it in and donate all commissions to breast cancer charity and research.

 

Now on to happier things. I love this Rustic Wooden Pumpkin Kit. These would go great for fall decor or to give as a gift. Have you been invited to a Thanksgiving Party? Perfect hostess gift!
