The Big Freeze—The Sunday Salon

Hello Lovelies, I hope that everyone is well and warm with a stack of books to keep them entertained.

Here in Ohio, we are getting ready for what The Weather Channel is calling a ‘Deep Freeze’ with temps expected to drop -40, which means not only will we be freezing our booties off, the stores will be a madhouse with those out gathering last-minute supplies. We’ve already had a healthy dose of snow and they say that more is on it’s way. While I’m not looking forward to the arctic temps headed my head, I am looking forward to doing a bit—okay a lot—of reading and consuming numerous pots of tea. What I’m currently reading: Books:
 Fiction:

 named%20of%20the%20dragon%20canada
Named of the Dragon by Susanna Kearsley—I’m a huge fan of Susanna Kearsley’s novels—a pleasing mixture of contemporary, historical, gothic, mystery, and romance, they keep me glued to their pages for hours and thus far, Named of the Dragon is one of my favorites. With fingerless gloves in place, I intend to finish reading this one today.
 
Non-fiction
 
kg The King’s Grave by Philippa Langley and Michael Jones –hopefully I will be starting this one today or tomorrow.

Magazines

I am *finally* going to get around to reading Ireland and Britain.

I hope those of you in the path of this winter storm will stay safe and warm with a stack of good books.

I will leave you with a picture of my favorite reading spot in my back garden. (I don’t think I’ll be visiting it anytime soon).

Lovely photos! Watching a snowy landscape while reading and drinking tea is on my agenda today, too!

That deep freeze is coming here too to northcentral Pennsylvania and I'm not looking forward to it. At least, tonight I can hunker down with a book, but tomorrow night and Tuesday, I'm working...at least, I'm inside so I guess I should be thankful for that.
