Welcome to The Sunday Post #35! The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted at Caffeinated Reviewer. It’s a chance to share news~ A post to recap the past week on your blog and showcase books and things we have received. Share news about what is coming up on our blog for the week ahead. See rules here: Sunday Post Meme. I will also be joining Deb at Readerbuzz for the Sunday Salon.
My Week:
Aside from a number of appointments this week, it’s been a quieter one. We did have an entertaining night of fine dining and casino time with family this week as an added birthday celebration. I’ve had such a memorable birthday for my 60th and loved every minute of it.
We got our replacement range on Wednesday just in time to start some holiday baking! After a month of no oven, I can’t tell you how nice it is to have one again.
Our weather has been all over the place this week with some milder temperatures washing away the remaining snow. The one drawback to living in Vancouver is all the overcast and rainy days and this time of the year is notorious for this. We really appreciate the odd sunny days we get during the November – February period.

I’m looking forward to watching Beauty and The Beast: A 30th Celebration on December 15. There is an all-star and talented cast and it’s sure to be a wonderful holiday treat! It’s on CBC in Canada, ABC in the U.S. and streaming to Disney+ starting December 16.

I’m glad you had such a happy birthday. And excellent to have the new oven, especially nice with the colder weather. It’s a good time to bake or roast food.

It’s very similar here weather- wise this time of year, at least with the overcast skies. I’ve already found myself yearning for more sunshine. 🙂
Hope you have a wonderful week! 🙂
