This week I have gotten quite a bit of reading time in. We had storms for several days with unrelenting rain causing mini ponds to form in our field. I can hear the frogs in the evening now, enjoying themselves with so much standing water.
Besides more reading time, the rain kept me inside making hot lunches and cookies.
Here is a carmelized onion and chedder quiche loaded with chives from Mary McCartney's cookbook Food. Easy enough and fun to look through this cookbook.
In book news....
Currently reading / Backyard Bird Chronicles, Brideshead Revisited and The Snow Goose.
The Snow Goose by Paul Gallico is an older book the library was taking out of circulation. I like old books, the feel of them and the bent pages where previous readers marked a passage. On the sale trolley for $1 so how could I resist, especially as it's on my Classics Club list.
Brideshead Revisited is also on my Classics Club list and happens to be the one picked by their game The Spin.
Armchair travel this week is California, Oxford and Essex England. That's about it. Not a crazy exciting week here but I am getting some good reading in. I hope your week is a good one.

Oh I love quiche! It's been raining here too but unfortunately on my in-office days so I haven't been able to enjoy it. I have managed to get some reading time in though once I get home. Currently reading Evenings & Weekends, quite good. Night Watch, really good and Red Dog Farm, which is beautifully written.
