The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba @ Caffeinated Book Reviewer. It’s a chance to share News. A post to recap the past week, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up for the week on our blog. What happened this week? It was a bit of a meh week, not for any specific reason, but this week just seemed to drag and go too fast at the same time. It had some bad days, where I just felt grumpy the whole day for no reason at all. I also […]

Lola’s Kitchen: Creamy Spinach Pasta Sauce Recipe

Lola’s Kitchen: Creamy Spinach Pasta Sauce Recipe

Lola’s Kitchen is a feature on Lola’s Reviews where I talk about all things related to food, cooking and baking. These posts can be recipe posts or more discussion type posts about food. I love cooking and spend some time in the kitchen almost every day, so I wanted to give it a place on my blog as well. The banner for this feature is designed by Michelle from Limabean Design. I think this is the first Lola original recipe I share on the blog. Usually I just find a recipe somewhere, make it and tweak it. With this recipe […]

Lola’s Ramblings: I don’t Watch TV

Lola’s Rambings is a feature on Lola’s Review where I talk about me. Usually these posts are everything that doesn’t fall under any standard header, like blog tours, book blitzes, cover reveals or reviews.

The banner for this feature is designed by Michelle from Limabean Design. The inspiration for today’s topic came thanks to a conversation I once had in the comment section on Between My Lines. It was as […]

Review: Rice Cooker Revenge by SJ Pajonas

Rice Cooker Revenge (Kami No Sekai Short Story Series #1) by S.J. Pajonas Blurb: It sits there on the counter, quiet and contemplative. Who knew rice cookers could be so vengeful? Ryu must decide whether to stay or leave The Chef’s kitchen, so he turns to an unlikely ally for help. ~~~ Shhh… Listen To The Gods. The Japanese believe the gods live in all things. Trees, appliances, animals, buildings — they all have a spirit living within them. Maybe, if you listen carefully, you can hear them too. My Review: I received a copy in exchange for an honest […]
