I'm really not a contemporary reader UNLESS it contains a Marriage of Convenience or is a Classic Literature spinoff. If you're mainly a historical reader, is that your draw to pick up a contemporaries too, or am I just picky? ---If you like the classic literature spinoff angle, Heidi Chiavaroli's first book of her series spinoff of Little Women is on sale today for only $0.99. Highly recommend.

I recently saw a huge, fancy feathery hat at a thrift store that was just gorgeous and though I generally think I look awful in hats and this one was red (red is not my color) I put it on and thought....um, I think I should buy this. I sent a pic to my daughter and husband and both of them agreed....and now, it's in my bedroom and I'm trying to figure out if there's any way I can ever wear it out. I don't like to draw attention to myself and that's pretty much what I'd be doing since no one wears hats like this. If only Easter hats were still a thing, I could at least wear it once a year. ![]()

A video came up in my recs today that explains the sad reason why I can't come up with anywhere to wear my hat! Being that my son loves hats, I've pondered our lack of hat wearing and figured it was mostly because we're not "outside" anymore, you go into the garage to the car and only are outside for the walk into work (maybe), and since it's considered bad manners to wear your hat inside, it's not worth the trouble for the short walk into work/church/school. Most who are outside are exercising, so no fancy hats. The "fanciest" hats worn are the cowboy/farmer type and well, cowboys/farmers spend a lot of time outside and it's still more of a work hat. But seems there is more to our lack of fancy hats than lack of doing outdoor things. Very interesting cause and effects in this video. (Caveat, there is language in this video)
