Fun Friday Finds | 05-23-2025 | 💙📚 #Books #Crafts #Recipes #IndieAuthors #Prizes #SonoranHotDog #CraftMead | Gina Rae Mitchell
Welcome to the Friday Finds 05-23-2025 It’s Friday, and I’m feeling sassier than a lizard on a hot rock. This week’s Friday Finds is hotter than a steering wheel in August—featuring a crash course in Sonoran cuisine (brace yourself, the hot dog is wrapped in bacon), indie reads spicier than salsa at a roadside taqueria, a craft that won’t glue your fingers together (probably), and a Fun Time question that may or may not start a cactus vs. roadrunner debate in the comments. So kick off your shoes (unless you’re outside—ouch), pour yourself a prickly pear margarita/lemonade, and let’s dig into the good stuff—Arizona style. @DL_Orton @The_WriteReads @GoddessFish @rjgould_author @DesireeFromBK @worksjudith @authorpetie @iReadBookTours @robert.adolph @joanneeasleywriter
