The Lily Cafe Weekly Highlights – September 4, 2026
At Home
This was a fast week, and this weekend is a long one for my kids. They’re off today and Monday, which will be nice because they can help keep the kittens in check! It’s been so busy all week, and the cats have decided it’s the perfect time to get back into jumping on everything and otherwise getting into trouble.
I’ve been tired, but the weather is finally nice again. It looks like it’ll get warm again next week, but it shouldn’t be over 100 like last week. I’m really enjoying the nicer weather, and so are the cats. When they’re cool and comfortable, they’re really active. Oh, maybe it’s a bad thing it’s not hot.
Anyways, the kids are doing well. My daughter’s class did a book tasting, an annual thing the 4th grade teachers do to introduce different genres. It kicks off their 40 book challenge. My son refused to take part, but my daughter seems interested. It’ll be a fun challenge, and she’s already picked out a couple of books she wants to read.
What I’ve Read
I really enjoyed Silk and Sensibility by Mengxi Seeley. It read like a cross between Sense and Sensibility and an historical Chinese drama. I had so much fun with it. Who knew Regency England and the Ming Dynasty worked so well together?
In progress: Eat, Drink, and Get Buried by Cleo Coyle
This is the 22nd installment in the Coffeehouse Mystery series, featuring Clare, who runs the historic Village Blend coffee shop in NYC, as she solves murder mysteries alongside her Village Blend team, her NYPD detective fiance, her former mother-in-law (who owns the coffee shop), and sometimes her ex-husband. This one brings her adult daughter Joy home for a party her best friend is throwing for her boyfriend, but, of course, someone dies and Clare is determined to get to the bottom of it. I love this series, and am torn between tearing through this or savoring it.
Kids’ Reading Corner
The 7th Grader: He has no books in progress at the moment, but he’s doing plenty of math…
The 4th Grader: Thanks to the book tasting her class did the other day, she has a couple of books she wants to check out from the library. Otherwise I believe she’s reading about unicorn princesses right now.
The Kitchen
Even though we had pleasant weather and a working oven, I did not manage to bake anything. This week was too busy, but my son keeps saying he wants to make brownies.
The Writing Lounge
I barely managed to get this written, and my posts for Monday and Tuesday, so there wasn’t too much writing going on this week. Between people coming to work on the house, give us quotes, and appointments, there were days I barely checked my email.
Featured Posts From the Cafe
This week I shared my thoughts on historical fantasy thanks to Fantasy with Friends and my reviews for Morfran, Dark Lord Reformed by S.B. West and An Empire in the Clouds by Ai Jiang.
Blog Stats and Other Interesting Things
As much fun as this section has been, I’ve decided to retire it for the time being because 1) it’s kind of a pain to do and 2) I’m currently in my “I don’t really care about stats” phase (I cycle back and forth, so this section might return one day).
Featured Blog Post
Each week I aim to share my favorite post of the week. But, as my brain is increasingly cluttered with manuscript-related things and I’m getting increasingly sidetracked by my backyard as it’s gone from dead to wildflowery to I’m worried it’s overgrowing, I’ll be taking a break from this section.
If you would be so kind, one of my best friends is an artist and recently opened her online store. If you like LGBTQ art, take a look: Sunlight & Sky.
See you next week, and thanks for reading!

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🐦🌱 A #VirginiaTech-led study surveyed about bird feeding in Project FeederWatch, asking people how the routine affected them.
At season’s end 95% said feeding and watching #birds had positively shaped their well-being. Respondents described the effect through #emotions such as joy and calm, engagement like building identification skills, and a felt sense of meaning.

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 🧵🪡 The nearly 70 m (230 ft) #BayeuxTapestry is an embroidered #linen cloth ending abruptly with the death of King Harold at the Battle of #Hastings, leaving scholars to wonder if a final coronation panel was lost.
Ahead of its #London debut, organizers launched a #competition asking #children to stitch their own hopeful ending. Winning classes earn a trip to see the #artifact and visit the #battlefield.

💁🏻♀️ TIL: ☀️🧴 A #JAMA #Dermatology meta-analysis pooled 17 studies covering more than 321,000 people and found that a history of painful, blistering sunburns raised the odds of squamous cell carcinoma by 51% to 69%, with severe #childhood burns linked to up to three times the risk.
Researchers caution that the evidence is uncertain because it relies on people recalling past burns. The study reinforces #sun protection such as Slip, Slop, Slap for #kids and #teens.

💁🏻♀️ TIL: 📱🧠 An eight-year Finnish #study followed 260 #children to see how physical activity and #screentime related to later cognitive processing.
More screen time correlated with better #teen cognitive performance, tied to the type of screen use rather than duration. Physical activity benefits also differed by gender, with light activity helping working #memory in #girls.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@aboutsignal/117054734086971962
Many of my kids want to securely text other kids who have laptops but not a phone plan or a debit card or spare money securely. This will stop that.
This will also make new users think that signal is a greedy company doing pay for privacy.

https://www.theguardian.com/society/2026/aug/07/english-primary-schools-to-be-told-to-identify-children-at-risk-of-future-unemployment. What utter nonsense is this? Yet another burden on #primary #School #teachers, another #fallacy in the "thinking" of #Labour #Ministers - namely that it's possible to identify #children aged 5-11 who might become #unemployed as #adults. Are we to "write off" entire #classes of #kids because of their #socioeconomic #backgrounds, is that it? And this from a "Labour" #Government!
