Thank you for visiting TSLL.

This delicious dessert has now been consumed by three people (one was moi ☺️) and it was delicious AND something else that is sweet is that it is Friday! 

And not just any Friday, but a British Week Friday for the weekly This & That post. Soooo many British-themed items ➡️ With so many items included in this week’s T & T, I had to create two image collages (see above and to the right on the blog - if reading on your desktop/laptop). Okay, so there is a book for just about every interest – capers, cookbooks, travel, special edition classics, and series. A new-to-me mystery series on BritBox, a podcast hosted by Lucy Worsley I have found quite fascinating, clothing items exclusively from British brands, the grand celebration taking place currently in Britain, and yep, the second Downton Abbey film that premieres today in the states. Plus, so much more.
On the road for a few days to tomorrow's book signing at @bookloftoforegon and stopped for a night in Walla Walla, a town the boys and I spent much time in quite a few years ago as I worked away at a favorite patisserie here in WW, explored the wine culture and the many cultural offerings such as a visit to Whitman College by David Sedaris!!

Norman is such a good traveler, and while I tend to some work in the lobby, Norman watches the guests walk by. Grateful for how well he travels.
Staying at @therookeryhotel in London for a couple of nights was indeed a treat (complete with the perfect feline host ☺️). Now up on the blog a full tour of my stay and why the location is ideal for bustling about the city without paying a luxurious price for the luxurious accommodations.

Lead me to a garden and I could wander and be for days. Now on the blog, a detailed photo and video tour of my recent visit to @sissinghurstcastlegardennt . An afternoon passed so swiftly, filled with so much calm and offering so much inspiration and grounding. 

#tsllbritishweek #tsllbritishweek2022
Save the date if you are going to be in NE Oregon this coming Friday! My childhood home town's independent bookstore, @bookloftoforegon is hosting a book signing event complete with tea and chocolate truffles and readings from the book. Beginning at 3pm this Friday May 20th. I am so looking forward to the first in-person signing event for #tsll3rdbook - paperback and hardback copies are available!
