So I’m a reading fool right now. I swear, it’s like I went without water for weeks and was just given a hose. I’m going nutty. I haven’t been online as much, which is good. I’ve realized I was way too addicted to it internet. I’ve been busy with life and with reading. And amazingly enough, I get online when Emma goes to bed and manage to write my daily word count goal.
So I finished Gemma’s book Spying in High Heels. Okay, and honestly, I’m not trying to turn my page into a review site, but if I read a really good book, I’m going to tell you. I must be hitting the jackpot on good books lately, because this was fantastic. It was such a fun, light, hilarious book. I couldn’t put it down. And the hero…. I WANT HIM. Yum. Yum. Yum. Yum. You really need to read this book, especially if you like the funny ones. And it’s got a bit of a mystery, so I was just in heaven. I’m SO picking up her next book. I read this and had a serious case of the ‘I’m not worthies.’ Gemma, the author, is another sweet lady (see the trend, I tend to read people I know!) I met her first in Romance Divas, then at Nationals. You should seriously pick up this book.
So I’m trying something new. Somewhat encouraged by visits to Julie’s blog. Once upon a time, I was a vegetarian. For 6 weeks. Then I went to Disneyland, and back then their idea of ‘vegetarian’ was a caesar salad (and I don’t do anchovies.) So that broke the mold. I went back to meat. Or chicken/turkey. But now I’m getting really grossed out by meat again. Soooo I’m thinking I’m going to try vegetarian again. I’m not declaring myself one. I’m just going to give it a week and see how it goes. I’ve already gone…3 meals! LOL. Yeah, not much, but it’s a start. So wish me luck!
Okay, today is cookie baking day, then off to the aunt’s for our Christmas exchange and pizza dinner.
Okay, I had a different funny pic of the day up, but it’s too controversial (BUSH) so I’ve replaced it with this pic Amie sent me :)
OMG!!! ROFLMAO! That picture is classic!
I can’t wait for Gemma’s next book to come out. Lisa said it was even better than the first, if that’s even possible!
Eww, that picture is gross. Haha. Giving up meat? I’d rather die. :) Hmm, you’ve made me very interested in Gemma’s book. I may put it on the stack yet to be tackled. Oh boy, I need 30 hour days.
Yay Shelli!!! Congrats on trying to become a vegetarian again! Now, if you need any extra motivation, let me know. I’ve got tricks :-)
I’ve been reading a lot too, mostly Christmas stories. Makes me want to write one now :-)
Oh look Julie swayed you. I’m too much of a meat eater, I don’t think I could do it. My sis-in-law just did…
You gotta go over to my blog and check out my naughty pic…
:)
I’d give up meat, it grosses me otu too, but I already can’t have milk, wheat, rice or sugar…and I gave up caffeine and I’m giving up my smokes. Meat stays.
BTW soy is a goiterin so be careful if you have thyroid troubles. ALmond milk ROCKS!!!
LOL I love that cartoon.
LOL. LOve the pic.
I couldn’t be a vegetarian. I enjoy my meat too much. LOL.
Have a good Christmas, Shelli.
:o)
Stopping by to wish you a Merry Christmas, Shelli! Meatless of course. LOL. Good luck and happy holidays!
I looked for Gemma’s book in my local Waldenbooks(Borders) last week and they didn’t have it. :-( I spent over 60 bucks on books still though. Phew! I’m still going to have to order it online. I might run by B&N later this week though before I do that.
