Just Life
This was a fun week for me since my birthday was right in the middle of the week. Starting last weekend, my husband made me all my favorite foods. It was a bit more than my stomach was prepared for but my mouth sure enjoyed it.
And I got lots of fun gifts including tickets to a meet and greet with Lauren Graham as part of a book tour for her latest book which came out last fall. You all might remember that I’m a HUGE Gilmore Girls fan, so this gift is absolutely perfect – bookish mixed with fandom.
So, that was my week – how was yours?

What I Was Watching
We were all about the new gameshows this week. Deal or No Deal Island is a lot of fun, and Survivor started kind of interesting with our opinion TBD.

Happy birthday glad it was good! x
Thank you!
Happy birthday, Pisces!
I just reviewed You Will Never Be Me on my Sunday post today and gave it five stars. I’m a fan of Sutanto’s rom coms and thrillers now.

I’m so excited to read it!
Yay! Glad you had a great birthday week 🥳
No, I did not know you were a big <i>Gilmore Girls</i> fan. Hubby is obsessed with the series. We’ve watched all 7 seasons…6 times.
Great book mail, too. Off to check out <i>You Will Never Be Me</i>.
I watch Gilmore Girls in a loop 🤣 – a little each night. Never get tired of it.
*sigh* You and my hubby should share notes. Are you team Dean, Jess or Logan?
I’m Logan. I love how he challenges Rory to come out of her comfort zone.
Yay!!! I’m team Logan, too. He was her equal and always respected who she was, what she wanted and what she needed. Loved when he groveled to Lorelai and got that letter. I’m always puzzled by Team Jess.
It sounds like you had a wonderful week. Happy birthday, by the way. I think the meet and greet with Lauren graham is the best gift.
It should be fun!
Wow, what an exciting birthday week you had, Tessa. That’s awesome that you got tickets for a meet and greet with Lauren.
Thank you! 😊
Happy Belated Birthday, Tessa. It sounds like you got some red-carpet treatment. :-) And thanks for the recommendations for some television watching. My daughter and her partner love “Survivor” so I’ll be sure to ask them what they think of new season. :-) Happy Reading!
Hubby makes it his mission to give me a red carpet week each year (and I’m not complaining) 😇
Awww. I love it.
Your meet and greet gift definitely sounds like the perfect present. Glad that you had a fun birthday week.
It really is 🥰
Happy belated birthday Tessa, hope you had a great day ❤️
Thank you! I did 💕
SPHappy Birthday! I love Gilmore Girls. That meet and greet sounds fantastic and you’ll be able to get your book signed. So awesome! Here’s my SP: https://bonniereadsandwrites.com/2024/03/03/sunday-post-all-that-red-tape/
I’m going to be so awkward talking to her 🤣 but it’s a once in a lifetime chance
Sounds like a great present, and happy belated birthday. I have been working all week, but have heard about a volunteer job I went for. Working in a theatre, I class that as my happy place.
That sounds wonderful! And thank you for the birthday wishes!
You’re welcome 😀
Happy belated birthday!!! 🙂
Thank you! ☺️
It sounds like you had a great birthday! I’m glad you enjoyed it (and all that wonderful food your hubby made). Happy belated birthday, and happy reading!
Thank you! ☺️
Another Happy Birthday, Tessa. It sounds like a great week and how wonderful to get to go to a meet and greet with Lauren Graham. Enjoy your new books, Tessa.
It should be fun!
I’m so glad you had such a great birthday! And, how fun that you get to do a meet and greet with Lauren Graham. I hope you enjoy it as much as you hope you will. 😀

Me too! ☺️
Happy birthday, and what a thoughtful gift!
Wishing you a lovely reading week
Thank you!
Glad you had such a great birthday week, Tessa! A friend of mine is also a big Gilmore Girls fan, and she’d love a gift like that. We’re also Survivor fans and watched the first episode. The first player voted out wasn’t a surprise at all – saw that one coming, lol.
Not at all! My husband said if it didn’t get better, he might have to sit this season out. I’m sure it will though.
Belated birthday greetings and glad you had a nice birthday celebration – your husband is definitely a keeper!! I hope the coming week is also a good one crammed with lovely books.
Thank you 😊
happy birthday, Tessa! Those are amazing gifts. I hope you enjoy the meet.
