Watching TV and One Boring Book

 Watching a lot of TV

The Great British Baking Show is winding down for the year. I like watching, but mostly
I’m not tempted by the pastries they bake. The meringues sounded pretty good, though. 
We have faithfully watched each week as it’s being released.

“Elsbeth” Season 3 is much more comical than the previous seasons — we watched one more this week.
The effective detective still wears unusual hats and carries 3 shopping bags. A very fun series!

Nero Wolfe and his trusty sidekick Archie now speak Italian (with subtitles).
It’s a little strange, but watchable. I’ve only seen one episode.

One Boring Book

The Hollow Man: by John Dixon Carr: A Classic.
Also a very boring book. I forced myself to at least scan to the end.

Anticipating Halloween

Halloween signs from a web search — for Sami’s weekly murals.

… and more Halloween from another walk around the neighborhood.

I unplugged my TV a year ago because I never watched it. I spent too much time on my iPad and phone, so I need to rest my eyes sometimes.

My TV is on from the time I wake up to the time I go to bed. I'm not always watching it. It is more for background noise. But I do actually watch some great movies and series. Love the Halloween pics.

I love Elsbeth, great series. Not much into cooking shows. Thanks for participating in Monday Murals Mae.
