If You And I Had Coffee

If you and I had coffee...

We'd meet at a local coffee shop. I'm currently on a hot chocolate kick, so I'd probably try a seasonal flavored one. We'd also get some pastries and breakfast sandwiches. We'd definitely stay indoors because it's a bit cold to go for a walk. 

If you and I had coffee...

I'd tell you all about the books I'm excited to read this month. I'm reading Sleepwalk by Anna Fury and just finished reading Lies by A.L. Woods. Lies was such a good book, and it's one that I usually wouldn't read because I usually avoid books that involve infidelity or lies. I was happy that I read it and honestly think that this is a book that everyone should read. I'll definitely post a full review on the blog about it soon. I'm also looking forward to reading Call Us What We Carry by Amanda Gorman. I'm still reading holiday and winter-themed books, too. Hopefully, I can get through them all by the end of the month.

If you and I had coffee...

I'd tell you that I really enjoyed celebrating my 31st birthday. John took me out on a date, and we went to Lucky's. Their food was excellent. We plan on going back soon. We also had some ice cream cake and celebrated with our boys at my mami's house. It was a low-key birthday celebration, but it was perfect. I'm still planning to celebrate my birthday all month long. I also found myself reflecting on my 30th year. It's crazy that I turned 30 during a pandemic, and now I just celebrated another birthday during a pandemic. 

If you and I had coffee...

I'd tell you that I'm currently working on several creative projects. I'm still working on a few Project Life layouts from 2021, and I'm also working on a few layouts for this month. I'm also working on my new sketchbook/journal, and it's been so great. I'm still trying to decide how to document my One Little Word for the year. I also started a new traveler's notebook. I'm using a Studio Calico traveler's notebook to document January. I think I'm going to use a traveler's notebook each month in addition to using my Project Life album. 

If you and I had coffee...

I'd tell you that I'm currently working on a few essays that I hope to submit to some magazines and blogs. I really want to publish more work, and I think this will be a significant goal for me this year. 

If you and I had coffee...

I'd tell you that I'm so glad that we were able to catch up. I'd say that I hope you have a happy new year. I hope this year is a good one for you. 

What would you tell me?

Thanks for visiting!

Until next time...
