Cakey ginger cookies and a chewy thought-provoking book. The perfect recipe for a rainy day. On the surface it’s a story of obsession that leads to a daring theft. Dig a little deeper and the warnings about human destruction of the Earth’s resources are the bigger picture. The numbers will shock and frighten you: millions of bison down to 300 by 1900, passenger pigeons from billions of birds to extinct by 1914, Earth’s population from 100 million at the time of the writing of Genesis to 1.6 billion in 1900 to 7.5 billion today. #thefeatherthief #kirkwallacejouhndon #bookstagram #iamreading #gingercookies #conservation

Now that the main event is over comes my favorite time: leftovers, football and relaxing! I’m so thankful for a roof over my head, food on our table, a healthy family, adorable fur babies and good books to feed my soul. #happy #thanksgiving #thankful #pumpkinpie #imreading #bookstagram #howtostoptime #matthaig

A Thanksgiving PSA from your neighbors in the South. And it should be made with cornbread. #dressing #notstuffing #south #southern #cornbread #southerncharm #thanksgiving

My regularly scheduled insomnia has, of late, been supplanted by an industrial strength version that has me beaten. In order to try to trick my over-active mind into slumber I have been redirecting anxious thoughts to more pleasant, mundane things. Last night I was ranking my favorite Doctor/companion combos. For me it’s 11 and Amy & Rory followed closely by 11 and Clara. So, two questions: Do you have any sleep suggestions? Any tried and true tricks you’ve used in the past? And, if you’re a Whovian, what’s your favorite combo? Discuss. #insomnia #anxiety #sleepless #doctorwho #whovian #11 #amyandrory
