I know I have been gone for a very long time. I have been knitting but it is Christmas knitting and I am not going to finish on time this year but the person receiving the final gift with be understanding that they will unwrap an unfinished project because they are cool and flexible. I cannot post any pictures of these projects for fear of ruining the surprise.
I have been reading a lot lately. When my hands ache I chill out and either bake or read. I made AWESOME vanilla cupcakes with chocolate frosting today. I got the recipe from More From Magnolia and they are really good. Even though they were made from scratch they were still very easy.
Back to reading. I finished reading The Masque of the Black Tulip which is book #2 is a series and I enjoyed it as much as the first one. Can't wait to read the second. one. I have also finished the first three books in the Uglies series, I really like teen books. They're easy to read but I enjoy them. Speaking of good teen books, everyone should read the Twilight series. Some co-workers talked me into reading them and I went through all three of them in a matter of about a month and a half. They are that good. I love vampires too. Right now I'm occupied with Julie and Julia, Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason, and Shattered Dreams. The first two are funny, the second one is really quite sad. Well it's one am so I should get some sleep.
P.S. I know most people link to amazon.com but I work for B&N. Plus some of those books are on bargain.
