BOOK REPORT......
Baker's Blues - Judith Ryan Hendricks
Product Description(Amazon.com)
In Wyn Morrison’s world a 5 AM phone call is rarely good news. It usually means equipment trouble at her bakery or a first shift employee calling in sick—something annoying but mundane, fixable. But the news she receives on a warm July morning is anything but mundane. Or fixable.
Mac, her ex-husband, is dead.
He’s not just in a different house with another woman, but actually, physically gone and the news ignites a firestorm of memories and regrets. Ineligible for widowhood, Wyn is nonetheless shaken to her core as she discovers that the fact of divorce offers no immunity from grief.
As Mac's executor, she is now faced with sorting his possessions, selling his house and trying to help his daughter Skye deal with financial and legal aspects of her inheritance--a task made more difficult by Skye’s grief, anger and resentment.
Ironically, just when Wyn needs support most, everyone she’s closest to is otherwise occupied. Her mother and stepfather have moved to Northern California, her best friend CM has finally married the love of her life and is commuting to New York, and her protégé Tyler is busy managing the bakery and dealing with her first serious love affair. They’re all sympathetic, but bewildered by her spiral into sadness. After all, it’s been three years since the divorce.
Once again the bakery becomes her center as she places herself back in the bread rotation. In the cool, gray light just before dawn, enveloped by the familiar smells of wheat and yeast and coffee, the hypnotic rhythms of Bach, the radiant warmth of the ovens, the borderline softens, becomes a permeable membrane letting her pass freely between past and present. She might be Jean-Marc’s apprentice at the Boulangerie du Pont, washing bowls and pans, shaping clumsy beginner’s loaves and learning to make levain. Or working nights at the Queen Street Bakery in Seattle with the ever-obnoxious Linda, teaching Tyler to bake, experimenting with different flours and techniques, testing, searching for the ultimate loaf of bread.
Now she will sift through her memories of Mac and their life together, eventually coming to terms with who he was and why, with Skye and her anger, and with Alex, who was once more than a friend. Soon she will re-learn the lessons of bread that she first discovered at the Queen Street Bakery in Seattle… that bread is a process--slow, arduous, messy, mysterious--and should be consumed with the eyes closed and the heart open…
Series: The Bread Alone Series
Paperback: 412 pages
Publisher: Chien Blue Press; 1 edition (July 8, 2015)
Language: English
ISBN-10: 0996503501
ISBN-13: 978-0996503501
MY THOUGHTS: This is the 3rd book of this series. I'm not sure if it will be the last. The first book, Bread Alone introduces you to Winter. She's living in Seattle and trying to find her life after a divorce. Book 2 is The Baker's Apprentice and introduces you to Winter and Mac as a couple. You can see my reviews by clicking on the titles of the books. Book 3 is about Winter tying to face Mac's death I really enjoyed reading this series of books. The characters are so real and the areas they are living in so real I can almost smell the ocean breeze. If you like reading about a woman's life, the ups and downs, this is a great series to read. I give this book and series 5.....

UPDATE ON QUILTS......
I've put the Tree Quilt in the hoop to be tied. And I had enough batting and backing to put the Winter Quilt together.
I've also been working on my Crazy Quilt. This is block 6.
And of course some close ups of my work.
This is a row of Bullion Knot flowers. I'm sewing some bee buttons on.
An antique piece of lace with beads and a button.
Some Tulip buttons. I used Chain Stitch for the stems and the leaves are Detached Chain Stitch, also know as Lazy Daisy Stitch.

BOOKISH FRIDAY......
Gillion over at Rose City Reader is the host for Book Beginnings, Freda over at Freda's Voice is the host for The Friday 56, and Billy B. over at Ramblings of a Coffee Addict is the host for Book Blogger Hop. Head over check them out, you could find your next book.
Baker's Blues - Judith Ryan Hendricks
Book Beginning....
Of all the ways he could have died, drowning was the least likely. He swam almost daily, headed for Matador when the surf was up, learned the Eskimo roll at the age of forty, sailed every chance he got. He couldn't possibly drown.
As we found out later, he didn't. Officially, he died of cardiac arrest. It was cold water that stopped his heart.
This is the 3rd book in this series. The beginning totally shocked me. The person they are talking about that died, well I won't say anymore as it will give away the story. Needless to say I didn't see that coming.
The Friday 56....
"Brownie! Hi, sweet girl. How are you?" She bends down for a big wet one.
"She's fine. And I am too, thanks for asking."
"I see sombody hasn't had their coffee yet. Leave that alone; you're going to hurt your shoulder." She unzips her windbreaker and hangs it on a hook.
"I'm not a cripple." I pull out another tray, ignoring the pinch in my left shoulder.
Book Blogger Hop Question.....
Which character in a book do you most likely see yourself? If none, who would you think would be your bff in real life?
I'm at lot like the Grinch from How The Grinch Stole Christmas. Grumpy at the beginning of the month, who wouldn't be, with all those people shopping, lines to stand in and the traffic. But by the time Christmas rolls around I'm like Santa handing out gifts.

BOOK REPORT......
Conspiracy 365 - Gabrielle Lord
Product Description(Amazon.com)
On New Year's Eve, Cal is chased down the street by a staggering, sick man with a deadly warning... "They killed your father. They'll kill you. You must survive the next 365 days." Hurled into a life on the run the 15-year-old fugitive is isolated and alone. Hunted by the law and ruthless criminals, Cal must somehow uncover the truth about his father's mysterious death and a history-changing secret. Who can he turn to, who can he trust, when the whole world seems to want him dead? The clock is ticking. Any second could be his last. Callum Ormond has been warned. He has 365 days. The countdown has begun... 12 books. 12 months.
Unknown Binding
ASIN: B007X6YG5E
MY THOUGHTS: I started this series of books on a whim. I was browsing the library for a quick read and ran across them. They are short books and I can read one in a few hours. This year long set of books starts with January with Cal Ormond meeting a man who is warning him about his fate in the coming 365 days. It's about a family secret from 1590, it's called the Ormond Singularity. The first born child of each generation wants to find it, but so far no one has, but Cal and his friends, Boges and Winter, are on the way to discovering what the Ormond Singularity is, the catch is they have to stay alive to find it. I give this series 5.....

I'm also joining Kathy over at Kathy's Quilts for Slow Sunday Stitching.
I started working on Crazy Quilt Block 6 this week.
Not sure if I like that row of beads on the lower left corner. I may take them off. I've used a new stitch I learned, it's the Bullion Knot. Sharon over at Pintangle has some awesome tutorials on embroidery stitches.
The little blue flowers are Bullion Knots as well as the yellow centers of the flowers on the white lace.

CHORES......
Do you have chores around the house you hate doing? Mine is dusting. I avoid it like the plague. It seems to be a never ending chore, maybe that's why I hate it so much. It's like I dust one day and the next day it's back. So eventually the surface of my desk looks like this.
I'll dust it one of these days, when I get tired of looking at it. I'm linking up with Melinda over at West Metro Mommy Reads for Saturday Snapshot. Hop over and check out what everyone is sharing.

Conspiracy 365 - Gabrielle Lord
BOOK BEGINNING.....
At the moment I'm reading July in this series. June left Cal trapped in a fishing net that is being dragged, full of fish, onto a boat.
Tons of water swirled all around me as I struggled and floundered, trying to claw my way out of the enclosing fishing net. I knew I couldn't hold my breath much longer. My lungs were desperate for air, and already I could feel my mouth wanting to open, even though I knew that would be a fatal move. The net tightened, crushing me against the trapped fish. Fins and prickly scales scored my face and hands like tiny razors.
This series of books would make an awesome movie! I'm half way through the series and each book ending leaves me hanging, with Cal in a precarious situation. Really good series.
THE FRIDAY 56.....
"Let's get down to business. Come on, dude.
Show it to me. At last I get to see this infamous jewel."
I held it out to him; it was as big as the palm of my hand, the oval emerald glowing.
BOOK BLOGGER HOP QUESTION.....
How reliable can you say you are in terms of having promised reviews completed for blog tours or publisher and author requests?
As soon as I've finished a book, I post my review the same day or the next day.
