Bookish updates in the last 2 weeks
Happy Sunday, Wormies! By the time you’re reading this, I am probably driving to Palm Springs for a work conference. Fun! Not really. LOL But at least I am out of the office for now.
The last week has been enlightening for me because ahem… I still know how to sew! I seriously learned how to sew in high school on an old school Singer sewing machine. Yup, not the electric one! My mom purchased a machine a year ago and I decided to use it! So here is the fruit of my labor!
I’m planning to make more! Yay! This took me about 4 hours to make, so it wasn’t too bad!
I’m also excited about this Pixar Short featuring Filipino-American characters written and directed by a Filipino! Thank you, Pixar for this representation. Asian representation in Hollywood has been rising, but for the most part, Filipinos have been overlooked because we don’t look like typical Asians. I can’t wait for November 12!

Do you do crafty things?
What books are you currently excited about?

I am not crafty, but I am really good at raking leaves, again and again. LOL. I am really excited to read Beard Necessities by Penny Reid, which just came out. However, I need to read the 2 books before it. I find that with this series, it is necessary to read them all in order, or you miss important things.
I suck at raking leaves! Penny Reid is really someone that I can’t get into. I should just try her at a different time.
I am so envious of those who can craft anything. I tried sewing years ago. My mom banned me from ever touching her sewing machine because I broke it each time. Sigh.
Enjoy your books!

hahaha I last sewed something in high school! I also broke a needle the first time I tried after years of not touching a sewing maching, but I just googled to find out the right needle to use 🙂 I’d be happy to teach you if we were neighbors 😉
