Yes. But a couple of years ago, I gave her the first 10 books in the Nancy Drew series. She finished the first book that night and the rest of the series by the end of the week. I had planned to get her the next set of 10 books, but they went to the library and got them the next week. She is a prolific reader. LOL

Those “coasters” are soooo cute. And just in case you wonder where the word “coaster” comes from…
AI says: The word “coaster” originates from the Middle English verb “costen,” meaning to sail along the coast. It evolved to refer to various items associated with horizontal movement, including a small mat or holder for drinks.
Etymology of “Coaster”
The term has an interesting linguistic history.
Modern Usage — Today, coasters protect surfaces from condensation and heat from beverages.
Latin Roots — The word may trace back to the Latin “constare,” meaning “to stand,” reflecting its function under drinks.
Old French Influence — It is also derived from the Old French “costier,” meaning “of the coast”.
Functional Evolution — Originally, coasters were used on trains to prevent spills, evolving into drink holders.

Mornin’ All. It is starting out beautiful here today. It is 70* right now with a slight breeze, and headed to 92*. It got down into the high 50’s in the night. That is what makes it nice.
Hope your air gets better where the fires are affecting it. And, stay indoors if you can.

Glad they finally found the source of the illness outbreak. i had recently read that Taco Bell was removing some ingredients from their menu, but this is much more definitive.
