I always seem to forget that Greyson attending daycare is harder on me than on him. In his first week and a half back I've now conquered the snot monster and have successfully caught a stomach bug. GRRRR!
Greyson spent yesterday and today in the care of his daddio and brother and sister while I lounged and did absolutely nothing. That said, I finished
Tout Sweet, by Karen Wheeler, and just as I suspected, it was a huuuuge winner! It fit my mood perfectly and I loved the atmosphere, her writing about food and decor and the goings-on in the French countryside. Sourcebooks is marketing this as "Flit Lit" -- chick lit + travel. I like it, though I'm always resistant to the "chick lit" label in any of its forms.
Tout Sweet officially scores a rating of
Snuggle.
I jumped directly from
Tout Sweet back into
Stories for Nighttime and Some for the Day by Ben Loory. There's a chance I may finish it up today while I'm relaxing and recovering. As much as I like the surreal, fairy tale feel of this collection, there are some distinctive problems with it, but I'll share those when I'm completely finished reading it.
While I am absolutely, positively ready for a Sunday without illness, this one has been laid back and low-stress, so I can't complain too much. How's your day? Healthier than mine, I hope. :)
