During the hottest, soupiest summers around here, one of my dear aunts used to say, “This is the worst weather for murder.”
I don’t think there’s any good weather for murder, but we knew what she meant.
On Friday, Chef Nature finally turned off the burner on the soup, and yesterday I got the chance to eat breakfast on our front porch.
It was a simple spread: egg, bagel, milk and coffee (made every morning by my husband). I read a bit of my latest mystery.* A light breeze lifted the scent of lavender. Our wind chime chimed. Song sparrows sang.
I may become a morning person yet.
Ask me on Monday.

My latest mystery is "The Fellowship of Puzzlemakers" by Samuel Burr. A perfect porch read.
I'm always open to book recommendations. I read too many political books. But here's one non-political book: "After the Ecstasy, the Laundry" by Jack Kornfield.

DeleteStill into mysteries! Remember we spent a summer decades ago seeing how many we could read from the Glenside Library?
ReplyDeleteThe ones with the green skull stickers! I have a couple guesses as to who you are, Anonymous. After all these decades, I may need an extra clue.
DeleteI loved that book.
