What are you reading?

So what books are you reading now?
I went to the library today and checked out a few
 "Angel Fire" by Ron Franscell, "The Book Of Tomorrow" by Cecelia Ahern, and "Emily and Einstein" by Linda Francis Lee all 3 are fiction novels; and I am reading Joyce Meyers "eat the cookie...buy the shoes" I bought it for my mom last year as she loves Joyce and she loaned it to me, I read books like that in short bursts, they inspire/teach me more that way.
I LOVE to read, I am a voracious reader. Mostly fiction, but sprinkled with biographies.
I read every night, My mom remembers when I was in 1st grade how I would want to read to her after school everyday. I think I fell in love with reading when I was about 8, see we had a BEDTIME (unheard of these days) even in summer WHILE IT WAS STILL LIGHT OUT! (Talk about torture!!!!!) so my mom told me I had to go to bed and stay there, but I didn't have to go to sleep; I could read. That opened up a  whole new world. I started with Judy Bloom and Beverly Cleary then Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys appeared....thus began my love affair. Now I can't sleep unless I read at least a few pages every night.
My nephew Colby is in 1st grade now and last week we read a book together at bedtime and  for the first time he wanted to read it to me. I love that!

    Oh if you love fiction you might enjoy The Hawk and the Dove by Penelope Wilcock. I am not a fiction reader but a non-fiction reader, and I have about five books going right now. The Fresh Brewed Life by Nicole Johnson, Bread and Wine-readings for Easter, Have a New Husband by Friday, Dr Kevin Leman (of course this is about me not my husband) and Discerning the Voice of God by Priscilla Shirer.

    Also a stack of books for my 5 year old..I love picture books and collect them

    Thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving a comment, what a blessing to me!

My Sweet Blog Sis

In September I got the sweetest package from my secret blogging sister. She sent me the perfect gift. CUPCAKES!! For those who may not know I have an addiction to cupcakes and cupcake collectibles. Don't cupcakes make you happy? Every time I see a cupcake it just makes me happy. I smile every time I see one. So this sweet mix of one of my favorite flavors made my day. This was the yummy result after my neighbors son helped me ice them...lol He just had to help and I was glad to let him. They may not be pretty, but they were so good! Thanks Secret Sis. You know me well and send the best gifts!

Hey Y'all! Sorry to have been away so long again. I won't go into details, but it has been a bit of an adventure here. I think  things are settling down (fingers crossed) So how are ya? I have another give away for ya! A few weeks ago I was given the opportunity to try and review a box of Woolzies Dryer Balls. Here is a bit about Woolzies from their website Photo from their Facebook page  Woolzies are pure handmade New Zealand wool dryer balls that soften your laundry naturally without any of the chemicals of conventional fabric softeners.

They also help reduce static and wrinkles. Use Woolzies to snuggle up with naturally downy soft laundry that's completely free of harmful chemicals.  Woolzies are also hypo-allergenic and totally safe for people with wool sensitivities as...
