Stranger Things is the Netflix hit of the year. Although slightly late to the game in watching it, I must agree with the crowd - it's pretty great! Mr. Fleece & I aren't into scary movies, but this show is executed really well, with great character development & an interesting plot presented at a good pace. If you've already watched the eight episode series & want more, I'd recommend watching these YouTube videos that help explain components that help make it so unique. It's made me interested in re-watching some old sci-fi movies, starting with E.T. :)

Eating
I've been in a bit of a baking mode lately. Generously given rhubarb and blueberries from two separate friends, I decided to smoosh them together make blueberry rhubarb pie. So yummy!
Reading
Since reading "A Raisin in the Sun", I've been on a kick of reading through classic plays. I re-read "Death of a Salesman" & "The Glass Menagerie" & tackled "A Streetcar Named Desire" and "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf" for the first time. Those authors loved to capture that family drama! It's making me miss high school English class. I just want to talk about quotes, themes, & character development : )
As I drive across town running errands, I've been slowly making my way through this memoir audio book. It's taking me back to the simple days with stories of strawberry picking, canning, viewing cinnamon rolls as a deluxe treat for breakfast & fishing. I'd recommend it for any road trip!
Happy snappy,
