Today, I am attempting a villanelle poem. I’ve always wanted to try writing one of these, so I figured why not now. I read on a few websites how to write a villanelle since it has a specific structure. I will share what I have, but I think I need to consult another website because…

Are you a Jigsaw Puzzle Person? Warning: This is an Interactive Post! Thanks!
Inquiring minds want to know, are you a puzzle person? Recently, puzzles have made a re-entry into our life. Although our family always enjoyed puzzles, we had gotten away from doing them.

Time for Some Summer Fun!
