Book and Product Review : As My Mother Would Say

As My Mother Would Say: Como Decia Mi Mama by Judith Valles

I picked this book up after reading about about in a random Google search for authors in my city of San Bernardino. Judith Valles was the first Latina mayor of San Bernardino, her family has a long history of fighting against the racism and segregation of the brown people in San Bernardino. She tells you a little about that in this book of dichos her mom would say. She doesn't just translate these dichos, she will give you context. It's a little book, but these dichos (proverbs) will have you thinking.  It's a good read that you can pick up and read through more than once. 

Savor Malibu Coffee and Tea Infuser 12oz

I want to like this tumbler more than I do. It leaks a bit, and that is not what I am looking for. It does keep the water at a good temperature for a bit. I am going to keep it and maybe give it some more time and see if I can learn to drink my tea more delicately with it.

CeSunlight Rechargeable LED Book Light

I really love this light. I needed something to help[ me read at night since my house is old with old lighting. It has not had to be recharged yet, even though my kids have been playing it it. It's flexible and has more than one setting. It's worth the price and I may have to gift one to someone soon.
