I really enjoy historical fiction, so when I got Nefertiti in the mail I just couldn’t wait to jump in. I will be posting my review of this book next week, along with a giveaway, so make sure to stop on by!
Since I showed a picture of one of my kitties yesterday, I figured I would post a picture of the other one. So sitting next to a copy of Dedication, which I received from Simon & Schuster, is cat number two named Dumpling. She is a beautiful cat, but unlike Howard, is not very nice. Kind of like an old antique - pretty to look at, but NO touching! Anyway, Dedication is written by the two women who wrote The Nanny Diaries, which I thoroughly enjoyed. This one sound pretty good too! Anyway, check out what Dedication is all about (and even read an excerpt on the website).
As I’m wrapping up my Book Booty series (ARGGGH, I’m all outta booty Mateys - sorry, I couldn’t resist) I figured I would include my Weekly Geek post also. This week Is “Photo Week” where we can post photos of anything bookish. For the last few years, my husband has been using one of our bedrooms in our home as an office. It is a nice size room, with a full bathroom attached. Recently we decided to convert this room into a guest bedroom/office and clean it out in the process.
Here is the before picture (keep in mind it also became our dump n’ split room, where we would dump our junk and run out really quick)! Since I’m a mother of two and in my mid-thirties, I thought it was high time that we grew up and got rid of the junk room once and for all!
I know, pretty bad, right? After some fresh paint, cleaning up and our new pull out couch, the room has been transformed into a space that I just love.
OK, so my husband has actually cleaned up his area next to (or on for that matter) his desk, but that is something he will be tackling this weekend. My daughter, the ham that she is, insisted that she be in the picture. With the recessed lights my husband installed, that comfy couch is my new favorite place to READ (see, I told ya I’d get something bookish in there)!
