Hello, everyone! Today we are linking up with:
- The Sunday Post hosted by Caffeinated Book Reviewer
- Stacking the Shelves hosted by Reading Reality
- The Sunday Salon hosted by Readerbuzz
Today’s post will be very brief! Busy day today.
Olivia Update 🐾
Olivia had a wonderful week! One evening, I decided to give her a little treat. So I created a little triangle out of her cat food and called it a “cat food pizza.” There is no pizza – it’s just her soft food that I shape into a triangle. But she really likes it! Somehow, perhaps this makes it more exciting for her.
Life Update
It’s been super busy this week. But here are a few highlights:
- Went out to eat with my partner last night. It’s a 20 minute walk away, so we decided to get some exercise by walking to and from dinner. I think the walking was super useful!
- The weather has been cooling. We’ve had some rain, which I adore.
- Watching a show on Netflix called “Keep Breathing.” Enjoying it so far – have you seen it?
Reading Update
Check out my Friday Reads blog post for a reading update! We are doing the ARCathon, hosted by Marti and Britt!
In our August TBR game, you can see which ARCs we are reading this month.
New to our shelf: We were approved this week for an ARC we are looking forward to! It is a YA thriller. Thank you to author Robin Roe, NetGalley, and HarperTeen/HarperCollins Children’s Books.

OMG I’m going to have to make my cat, Marilyn’s food into a pizza shape the next time I feed her!! Maybe she’ll actually eat it instead of just licking off the gravy?
Your Olivia is so beautiful. I love her.
I had wondered if that series Keep Breathing was any good. Sounds like it is?

Ah! Let me know if you make her a little cat food pizza! Haha too cute.

And yes, we are liking it! We have a couple of episodes left and I’m interested to see how the season ends.

What a cute idea for kitty pizza! I will have to try it for my girls.
Keep Breathing sounds good.

It must be so nice to have the weather cooling. I can’t wait til ours begins to cool. Your walk to and from dinner sounds lovely! Hope you have a wonderful week!
Yes! It’s cooling slowly but surely! Hope it will cool soon for you as well.
Have a great week as well, Tessa!

It looks like you’ve been up to some fun things lately, Sara! I love that you folded Olivia’s cat food into triangles to make a “pizza”—and I’m glad she enjoyed it! And getting to take a long walk with your partner to and from dinner sounds really relaxing. Also, the TBR game you are playing looks like a lot of fun—one of the books on there, One Cup at a Time, is one I hope to try soon, since I just enjoyed book 1 (Cat’s Café)! Thanks so much for the wonderful post!

Definitely check out One Cup at a Time – I will soon as well because I agree, it looks so good and also we loved Cat’s Cafe. Thank you Max and have a great week!

I’m so envious of you with your lovely cat. My esposo is firmly against any more cats at our house. Sad. But maybe one day I’ll wear him down.
Lucky you! Cooling weather sounds great.
Enjoy your books, Sara!

Aw yes, I hope there is still a cat or two just waiting in the not-so-distant future for you!
Take care and you have a great week as well, Deb!

I love the picture of Olivia. I also love that you made a treat out of her food. How fun! I haven’t heard of Keep Breathing. I’ll have to look into it. I’m glad you’re enjoying it. 😀

Thank you, Jenni! She really loves those cat food pizzas!
Definitely look into Keep Breathing, it’s really intriguing!
Take care and have a good week <3

It is great to get some exercise in, especially when eating out. Dark Room Etiquette looks good! I hope you enjoy it. Looking forward to your thoughts. 🙂
