Book Finishing.

Finishing a book is quite possibly one of the best feelings in the world. Can I tell you why? Because I'm a book grazer. That's right. Often times I begin a book, leave it half unread and simply move to another. I find it quite a shameful quality. When people ask me if I've read a book, much of the time I am resigned to reply that I have "started it and enjoyed the portion I read." So, with that said, I will assure you that I have completely read the books in my posts unless otherwise stated. Here, I proudly share a few of my recent vacation reads...cover to cover, my friends.

How Starbucks Saved My Life...sometimes it felt a little repetitive but overall a good read and interesting story.

Love and War was one of the best marriage books I've read so far.

Lastly, I finally finished A Homemade Life, which was absolutely and utterly wonderful. You can't help but fall in love with all of her recipes and their beautiful stories. And I love her simply for saying that "hell hath no fury like a woman starved," which I read shortly after Zach had informed me that intense hunger causes me to become "near homicidal." haha.

Another Chewbeads Giveaway - Open until 6/11.

YAY!   Another Chewbeads Necklace Giveaway – the Turquoise Hudson !   Giveaway will close on Monday, 6/11 at 10pm – winner will be announced by Wednesday evening. So, this go around, the necklace is a gift from me as a thank you for reading or visiting this tiny little blog.  Also, because it’s really fun to give stuff away.   So, I’ll be giving away one specific necklace, the Turquoise Hudson , since it seemed to be the overall favorite last time!   Chewbeads have actually even improved since the last giveaway - they're now lighter weight and don't snag on long hair! You all know I’m a little obsessed with them , and I still wear them, even with E at 16 months.   Actually, she was just chewing on them the other day (same day as the pic above– I swear she chews on them, I just never catch it).   And – she cries for the Charles bangles when I wear them.   She’s convinced they are hers, I assume.   So...Who c...

Land of Nod Giveaway!!! (CLOSED)

Giveaway is CLOSED. Giveaway, it's a giveaway!!! $50 Land of Nod Gift Card! I'm obsessed with The Land of Nod .  I'm sure this is no surprise.  As you know, a whole lot of Eloise's room came from there.  And we continue to loooove, love, love their products.  SO, just recently, they came out with some amazing and adorable new products .  I can't get over how cute the new beddings are...these would have seriously been in the running for EA had they existed then.  And the blue Jenny Lind bed is the perfect shade of aqua, all funky and polished at the same time.  In love.  And, if you happen to like poufs, too, a faux leather (and somewhat cheaper) version of one for kids (or adults).  Oh, yes, and the rugs...seriously amazing...  I need to stop.   Anyways, these sweet people at the Land of Nod have offered to give one lucky reader a 50 dollar gift card .  Yep, that's right.  I'm pretty stinking excited.  I ...
