Reading and Cooking

Alright, I'm about half way through my current book ("Into the Night" by Suzanne Brockman) and then am out of fresh new reads. Anyone have any good book recommendations for me? The only thing I don't really read are silly Harlequin novels.

I mentioned this on Facebook to some of my Farrar family relatives, but wanted to put it out here for those that didn't see it...Would you all be interested in contributing recipes to a family recipe book? I would upload all recipes into an album on Shutterfly and everyone could order their own book when they wanted to. Liz, Becca, and Laura are all in so far. :)
Gratitude Day 13/365

I have a hard time going back and doing each day so I just post them when I get to them...it will take longer than 365 days, obviously, but that is okay...I will have 365 days on here of gratitude. :)

But I will give you ten items right now. :)

1. Today is my parents 40th wedding anniversary. So much love for them.
2. My brother, Jeremy. Seriously that boy can keep you entertained for hours with his stories and adventures. Last nights dinner with Mom at Red Robin was no exception.
3. A weekend in CA coming up in October.
4. Bejeweled Blitz on Facebook. I'm addicted, I admit it.
5. "Guess what??" as can only be asked by Curtiss and Allie. This said before they launch into another story that gets peppered with "guess what" throughout it.
6. Chinese food! That is dinner tonight and I'm quite happy with the thought.
7. The infectious energy of Yen and her energy texts that she sends me.
8. Cute little puppy faces at PetsMart.
9. And the fact that Molly didn't go to the bathroom on the floor this time like she did the last time I took her.
10. I have some pretty awesome friends.

Is it OK if I stop using Photobucket? ROFL. The image quality is preserved but I can't be arsed to browse through a blog with "Bandwidth Exceeded" EVERYTIME. So are y'all OK with BayIMG's picture quality? Or you just can't be arsed? Everything goes!

Gratitude Day 7/365

1. McDonald's chocolate chip cookies...just saying!
2. "More to Love" on FOX. I think the bachelor Luke is just cute.
3. Yurts. Just say the word...it makes me laugh just saying it.


I think 3 is the best I can do today...the day was overall slow and dull. There wasn't much that happened at all to report as exciting.

Gratitude Day 5/365

1. Sleeping in!
2. Finding a bunch of empty frames in a bag in the closet.
3. Searching for the perfect pictures for said frames.
4. Doing some cleaning of the closet and getting rid of a bunch of JUNK!
5. Plans for the future.

Honestly I didn't do anything today out of the house. I cleaned the closet after the television went kaput in the middle of some Disney cartoon I was watching. Heh! Back to work tomorrow, hopefully the week will be full of excitement.
