📚 Keep Reading: 7 Books in 7 Months 💚
Back on April 2 (original post linked in Comments), I shared the St. Charles County Library’s 250 Books Celebration and encouraged everyone to join in. So here’s my honest update: since that post, I’ve finished 6 books, and I’m in the middle of book 7 right now. 📖 Am I flying through the challenge? Not exactly. Am I giving up? Absolutely not. 🌱 And I hope you won’t either. There are still 7 months left in the year, which means reading just one book per month would get you t

Opening Weekend of the Farmers' & Artists Market
It was a chilly and windy start to the Lake St. Louis Farmers’ & Artists Market season at the Meadows this morning, but there was still a great turnout. We met so many wonderful people, got to pet lots of puppies, and definitely appreciated the coffee and tea to warm us up. With Election Day just 3 days away, I’m especially grateful for every chance to be out in the community and connect with neighbors. Thank you to everyone who stopped to say hello this morning. 💚
