Press photo for "Your Show of Shows" of legendary comic Imogene Coca.
We got a DVD set from the library so we could see sketches from "Your Show of Shows" a live comedy revue program from the 50s. Imogene Coca is so relatable and my favourite performer of the series.
Snow removal tip. Keep flattening the top of the gigantic snow pyramid you’re making so you can keep adding more snow to the top level. Think Aztec pyramid versus Egyptian pyramid.

One of the things that really fun about this audiobook is hearing old timey British movie accents circa 30s/40s like listening to a TCM movie.
Book Cover: "The Book of Beginnings" by Sally Page Image: Yellow background. Key hole showing a starry sky under the title. Around the edges are pieces of paper with words, sketches, a bookmark, a paint brush, a pencil, a key, ivy and flowers.
I loved fountain pens when I was a kid so this is a perfect book for me and a nice warm hug after being terrified by my previous wonderful horror read.

Audiobook Cover: "The Staircase In The Woods" by Chuck Wendig Image: A spiral staircase winds up into the air in a the middle of the woods. A bird sits on the balustrade halfway up.
Waited a long time on hold at the library to get my ears on the audiobook for "The Staircase In The Woods" by @chuckwendig.bsky.social because my fellow Torontonians keep his books on perpetual library hold and you just have to be patient to get the good stuff. Bonus @xesands.bsky.social narration.
