Clearly I have a lot of reading left to do. The Sister by Poppy Adams Little Women by Louisa May Alcott The Sugar Queen by Sarah Addison Allen Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen Sense and Sensibility by Jane Austen 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet: Because We're All in it Together by Suzanne Barnett, Jennifer...
So, it's been very slow here at work, which does not in any way explain why I haven't been updating. Except to say that the library summer reading game is giving away an Ipod and I want an Ipod. So when I'm not working, I'm reading. I even made Mitch sign up, even though he won't read, but I have...
It is time I update this blog and get back to business of posting the daily boredum that has taken over my life! I'm holding on tight, keeping my head barely above water right now, trying with all my might not to go down, down, down to that dark place! I try, daily with internal pep talks, to have a...
I made this list a while ago, but have gotten around to posting/editing it. I'm giving myself until May 2010(when I graduate college) to finish it. Please leave a comment telling me any books you recommend. Thanks =) Start: January 5th, 2007 Books: Alphabetical by Author ( [R] are the books I'm...
It's been updated. Again. (I'm also going to add the books I buy this year as I buy them--and the new releases that I know I'm buying--so that it's a better list of what I've read and what I want to read.) The Sister by Poppy Adams Little Women by Louisa May Alcott The Sugar Queen by Sarah Addison...
1. Are any of your toes on your foot connected? *Umm Nope.. Weird... 2. Which do you use more a pen or pencil? *Pens i find it hard to see pencil now in my old age haha 3. Look at your planner for June 30th. What, if anything, do u have planned? *Get stuff organised for my Davids Bday a week later.....
So every so often, I'm asked for book recommendations. It's harder than you'd think, because I read so much and I always worry I'm forgetting stuff. So here's a quick guide for the stuff you should read if you want to read like me. Broken into genres because I'm OCD it's helpful. And I'll do seven...
Finished Gossip of the Starlings by Nina de Gramont. It's good, but I don't agree with the Secret History comparison. (Two girls at an exclusive boarding school are basically running wild and, as you can imagine, it doesn't end well.) It's getting a lot of buzz right now, actually. I enjoyed it but...
Apparently there were more questions... 1) How many books do you own? Approximately 1,015. Crap. 2) Last book bought... I bought A Thousand Splendid Suns (by the guy who wrote the Kite Runner) and The Overlook by Michael Connelly. I'm reading A Thousand Splendid Suns now and it is amazing. 3) Last...
How much do I love the library? I cannot thank the city of Frisco enough for providing such a phenomenal resource to me. That place is a gold mine. Not only can I get brand new material for me to read (ok- so sometimes I have to be on a wait list) but I can pick up 8-10 new books for the kids every...
1. Do you like blue cheese? sometimes.... 2. Have you ever smoked heroin? seriously??? NO! 3. Do you own a gun? No way.... 4. What flavor do you add to your drink at sonic? huh? 5. Do you get nervous before doctor appointments? Yes... White Coat Syndrom... 6. What do you think of hot dogs? great for...
So I had the bright idea of adding all new books I buy and the books I know I will buy to the book project so at the end of the year I'll know what books I read. And so it will become apparent to all who read this just how much of a life I (don't) have. It's a lot, I know. But I also know I can...
Update 7/1: Yowch, I've been bad about keeping this updated. Cleaning it up now! Also, going to the bookstore later today - woot! Update 5/28: Did some book shopping this weekend. Yippee! I think I have enough of a book stash now to get me through my due date and hopefully somewhat beyond. Half...
Mary Higgins Clark and I are breaking up. I had her two most recent books and I tried to read both and couldn't make it past the first two or three chapters of either. I'm also breaking up with Janet Evanovich. I finished Fearless Fourteen but it was a struggle. The Janet Evanovich breakup is harder...

Here is another whole wheat recipe from the King Arthur Flour Whole grain baking book( what a mouthful!!). The jury is still out on this. When I first tasted them, they were kinda "wheaty". Today I like them a bit better( just a bit). The recipe contains 1 1/2 stick( 3/4cup) of butter, cinnamon...

Well, i decided to give this blog a new look and to add the tagboard as well. Today is the second day of my holidays, but i'm not doing much. I'm still feeling good after yoga, haha! If not i didnt exercise at all. But my head is still feeling the 'thud thud thud' cos of the attempts to handstand...
After I got my NDS, my reading time has reduced drastically... Normally i would read while on my way to work... but now, i play with my NDS... so I took a real long time to finish this book. This is my 5th Jodi Picoult book. I can say by far, the worst book I have read from her... not that this work...
