Mockingjay

It is Mockingjay Release day!!! I drove over to my favorite Indie bookstore this morning Changing Hands to pick up my copy.  If you have not read the Hunger Games and book two Catching Fire get out there and buy the boxed set. My dilemma is now finding the window to read the book in one sitting because the author Suzanne Collins leaves no way out at each chapter end. Damn her!! Check back for my thoughts on  this final installment.

Childrens Book Campy Illustrations

From the ongoing books I love series. We checked this fantastic book out of the library many times this summer. It is all about a boy named Rusty who goes camping with his family called Rusty’s Red Vacation. The illustrations are magically delicious. I also love that the entire book is printed in only two colors, red and black. The graphics are tight and wonky at the same time – I love that! Wonky is my way!

It’s 110 degrees and I iced my wine

I have had mommy duty all day, we ran to costco and they had a hug bottle of Pinot on sale for $6.99. Well what’s a girl to do? It was warm so I had to ice it! I know it’s wrong I understand that but a girl needs her elixir of life and some times you just can’t wait for it to chill completely.   And who can blame me it was 110 degrees today. It’s hot, one needs ice! No judging me and my cheap wine drinking habits.
