Re: How do you unwind or relieve stress?

My go-to stress reliever is a bit unusual, I suppose. When I want to relax after a particularly stressful day, I cook something or peruse some of my many cookbooks. Baking bread is my latest food obsession/hobby; there's something extremely satisfying and calming to lose myself in the process. Other...

If Not Hogwarts...

If you were unable to attend Hogwarts, which other magical school could you see yourself attending and why? Personally, if I couldn't attend Hogwarts, my alternate choice would be Erehnoll, which is located in Northern Ireland. I won't lie and say that the main draw isn't the location (it's Ireland,...

Now don't get me wrong, I love Jodie as an actress, but she just never quite felt right for this particular role. She came across as blundering and a bit too glib for my...

Re: How do you prefer to read: physical Books, e-books, or audiobooks?

I've never gotten into audiobooks. I've always meant to try them, but I am afraid my attention would wander too much for me to follow the storyline. Personally, I love my e-books. I have nothing against physical books, but I love the space that e-books save. I am, admittedly, a tad bit OCD and don't...
