Happy birthday, Miss Kerry Greenwood! Thank you for giving us Phryne Fisher.

Did you know that Kerry Greenwood made a cameo in S1E11 Blood and Circuses? I love this behind the scenes photo.

Phryne was getting out of the car. Dot closed her eyes. Miss Fisher was about to happen to someone again.

"When he was seven years old, he got caught with a bucket of stolen peaches... his father whipped him soundly, but he never told anyone I was still up that tree."

I'm rewatching Miss Fisher for the first time in years -- since I finished filling all the gaps in my Sayers reading and re-read the books multiple times, in fact. I knew before that there were *some* Lord Peter references, but mostly I just knew about her using character names like Lavender and Prout. But "The Blood of Juana the Mad" not only has similarities to Whose Body (in the opening), but the murderer's motive was also borrowed from Gaudy Night. And now, a "Talboys" reference in the very next episode!

I haven't read the Miss Fisher books, but if this many references made their way into the show then the source material must be full to bursting!

Miss Fisher books are set in the late 1920s.

"If I ever want to gamble, I will go to Monte Carlo and try my luck there. Just to set your mind at ease, all my money is invested in a mixture of government securities and companies that manufacture food staples. And beer. If it all goes bang, people will still want to eat and drink."

Collaboration I did with one of my little sisters!! She drew the Middle, based on the book cover and I drew the left, based on both! I love my sisters version, it's very geometric and fun!

I finally organized my Phryne Fisher books by “tv tie-in” and “art” covers. The only book I’m still missing in either format is Blood and Circuses. I’m getting closer to having a full set of both editions. I just wish my art cover ones were all the same size.

Phryne Fisher's Winter Cookbook

When the skies are grey, and there's a definite chill in the air, I'm bound to find comfort in old favourites, be they dishes or books, and I often make time to cosy up in my velvet chair with a dog-eared murder mystery. On the occasions the novel in question is a Phryne Fisher adventure, I would mix myself a cocktail from Mr. Butler's grimoire and happily sip and read to my heart's content. I thought I would share, as it is getting chillier every day, Phryne Fisher's Winter Cookbook, inspired by the dinners, suppers, teas and tipples the St. Kilda household enjoys in the colder months!

While reading books, and after finishing them I have actually written to the authors. I found one that I had full lovely conversations with regarding her series on Facebook Messenger. Kerry Greenwood is lovely.

I grew up loving the Unicorn Chronicles and wrote a letter to Bruce Coville, he wrote me an email back about a year later. We email every now and then.

I have written "asks" to Neil Gaiman.

The only thing you can do is try to reach out and see what happens. You can have that lovely conversation.

What really knocks me out is a book that, when you're all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it. That doesn't happen much, though.

Top 5 books with baked goods

Hello friends!! Welcome to Top 5 Tuesday!! This week’s topic is top 5 books with baked goods!! This Thursday, 14 March is International Pi Day. Something about 3.14… maths, circles, other math/sciency things. Look, I read a lot of fantasy and romance. I don’t need to understand how to calculate a circumference. So, instead of picking 5 books that have something to do with math or STEM (let’s be…

It took determination to be really strange. That, or absinthe before breakfast every day.
