From An Island Life:
In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.

This week’s question:
Do you cheat and peek at the ends of books? (Come on, be honest.)

My answer:
Honestly…..No…Not Now!!!    I read purely for pleasure and entertainment so I don’t understand what purpose peeking would have.  But as I’m sitting here thinking about this question, there may have been times, while in school many years ago, that I skimmed through the body and peeked at the ending of a mandatory book that was of no interest to me.

From Lori’s site:
It struck me recently how much time I spend on this computer every day, blogging, chatting or playing games on Facebook, emailing friends and relatives, making cards and calendars, etc. etc. etc.
We depend on each other for book reviews, giveaways, encouragement, friendship, but how well do we really know each other?
So that is what this meme is all about, getting to know each other.

1. How many cookbooks do you own?
I own 7+ but my favorite is a spiral notebook filled
with my grandmother’s recipes written in her handwriting,
she passed away at 101 years old and was such a
great cook and baker, everything from scratch
2. What is the most used electrical appliance in your kitchen?
3. How many nights per week do you have take-out, delivery or fast food?
Unfortunately, more times than I cook.  It is
difficult for me to stand, bend, etc etc due to
the restrictions/limitations from the surgery.  I
am lucky that I have an understanding hubby.

With much thought, I have decided to make my blog an award-free blog.  I truly do get that “warm and fuzzy feeling” when one of my blogging peers presents me and has presented me with an award, but I have found that it takes too much time away from reading and a lot of time at the computer.  And since one of my goals for 2011 was to cut back on computer time, I feel this is one place to start.  However, if you think my blog is special in some way, please leave your thoughts in a comment, it will still give me that “warm and fuzzy feeling” and it will be greatly appreciated.  Thank you!!

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
*Grab your current read
*Open to a random page
*Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
*BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
*Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!


He sounds distracted, faraway.  Not cold, but not warm.  Not how you might sound if you haven’t talked to your daughter in months.  “Thanks,” I say.  “I’ll see you then.  Bye.”  I wait for his goodbye but only hear the soft click of the receiver.  They just need time to get used to the idea of me being out of prison, of my return to Linden Falls.
