Greetings, adventurers!

 Happy #MushAnch Monday and happy New Year! I hope you all had wonderful holidays and that you’re returning to your normal lives with renewed gusto.

I’m not going to lie—my holiday was genuinely awesome, and I wish I could turn back time and stay there! I spent a busy few weeks with my husband and daughter, as well as my mother and father, and some choice friends. I got a lot done, but I also did something I don’t usually do: RELAX! Now I’m back to it and managing my time more closely than ever with the hope that 2019 will bring all sorts of creative work.

Unfortunately, on this first #MushAnch Monday of 2019, I don’t have any news for you. Nonetheless, I’m confident that this will be the year that Mushroom and Anchovy makes its way to you. I’m staying committed and accountable, however, and I’m continuing to send these monthly updates.

Finally, I’d like to mention that I started a new project that I’m really excited about! I’ve started live-streaming, and I’ve also started filming YouTube videos. My website, the Practical Escapist, has been home to recipes and cooking inspiration for a few months now, and I’ve decided to take it a step further by streaming my cooking and baking live on Twitch. Also… there’s a really great clip of Mystery jumping on my head on my Twitch channel, so if you want to see that, give it a look. Mystery loves chilling on my shoulder while I cook and bake. I’ll be posting my first video on my YouTube channel later on this week, as well, so please make sure you’re subscribed so you’ll see it!

I’m going to leave you with a little parting gift today: a picture of Rusty and Mystery having a snuggle. Because they’re good boys.

 

See you next month, adventurers! May your adventures be fraught with wonder and just enough peril to keep them interesting,

K. M. Cooper
