Books of 2024: DAYSWORK by Chris Bachelder and Jennifer Habel.

Up next! This was an impulse buy (the authors had an event at a bookstore I frequent; serendipity), but the cover was enchanting and I'm fascinated by the structure--the whole book looks like little prose vignettes.

Featuring my own dayswork as of late: knittery! I made a cowl for myself so I don't have to battle with a scarf when I just want something easy between my sinuses and the winter air, especially when it's as cold as it was this weekend ("feels like -11°F" was a very persuasive argument against getting out of bed, but the birds needed me). At least the snow on the frozen pond was pretty!
