I'm on the lookout for fun memes, not the recurring type, just the one off ones. I saw this one over at The Chocolate Lady's Book Review Blog and thought it fit the bill nicely. Originally created over at BooksNest.co.uk I should have read that book... A book that a certain friend is always telling … Continue reading I Should Have Read That Book Tag

The Week That Was…
Full disclosure: tomorrow is my birthday. As a birthday treat, my sons came to the movies with me to see Dolittle. My older son doesn't do things like this much anymore, it's usually just me and my youngest seeing movies together nowadays, so it really was a birthday gift to all go out together. Dolittle … Continue reading The Week That Was…

It's been a fortnight since my last week that was. I've finished work for the year, had my first week of holidays, am on track for Christmas preparations, and have saved over $800 on my annual insurance premiums by switching providers. There's a Christmas bonus, right there! My very crafty daughter's contribution to Christmas: Youngest … Continue reading The Week That Was…

#TBT What I was reading this time six years ago…
Masquerade is the second book in the seven book Blue Bloods fantasy series by Melissa de la Cruz. This series is quite old and predates all of the Twilight and subsequent vampire fantasy hype. I think of it as one of the original series - and best, although seriously under-rated - of this sub genre. … Continue reading #TBT What I was reading this time six years ago…

This week has been a quiet one, mostly spent catching up on all of the washing I didn't do last week! The phrase buried in laundry has never rung more true.
