I love Thanksgiving, but it usually wipes me out for the next three days. I putter. I putter perpetually. I open the computer to try and work and find myself drifting back to recipes I was studying a couple days ago. I fall asleep reading and then startle awake, thinking I’ve missed the sound of the timer.
It’s one of those obsessive-compulsive things.
Hope y’all had a good day — wherever you are in the world — without or without turkey.
You've stumbled across my official website and landed on the front page of my weblog.My name is Rosina Lippi. I'm a former academic and tenured university professor, writing full time since 2000. Under the pen name Sara Donati I am the author of the Wilderness series, six historical novels that follow the fortunes of a group of families living in upstate New York from about 1792-1825. A new series based on later generations of the same families was launched September 1, 2015 with The Gilded Hour. The next volume in the new series, Where the Light Enters, was released in 2019.
Please see the pinned post for an overview of what you'll find on this weblog, and what has been moved to the wiki (including the FAQ page).
I’d be just the opposite — I’d drift to the computer, trying to get away from the recipes and the cooking (but not the eating).
Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving! And, by the way, one of the things I’m very thankful for are great books to read!!
