Please join in the fun and get to know your fellow bloggers!!

From Jennifer’s Site:
  In the spirit of the Twitter Friday Follow, the Book Blogger Hop is a place just for book bloggers and readers to connect and find new book-related blogs that we may be missing out on! This weekly BOOK PARTY is an awesome opportunity for book bloggers to connect with other book lovers, make new friends, support each other, and generally just share our love of books! It will also give blog readers a chance to find other book blogs that they may not know existed! So, grab the logo, post about the Hop on your blog, and start HOPPING through the list of blogs that are posted in the Linky list below!!
  The Hop lasts Friday-Monday every week, so if you don’t have time to Hop today, come back later and join the fun! This is a weekly event! And stop back throughout the weekend to see all the new blogs that are added! We get over 200 links every week!!
  Your blog should have content related to books, including, but not limited to book reviews.
  If you start following someone through the Hop, leave a comment on their blog to let them know! Stop back during the week to see other blogs that are added! And, most importantly, the idea is to HAVE FUN!!
This week’s question:
What’s your favorite beverage while reading or blogging, if any? Is it tea, coffee, water, a glass of wine, or something else?

My Answer:
LOL  All of the above.  It really depends on the time of day, the time of year and the mood I’m in and not on if I am reading and/or blogging.  I am the type of person that has something to drink nearby at all times and take sips throughout the day.  I have to have hot coffee in the morning year round, and during the warmer weather, will then switch to ice water and/or iced coffee and in the winter, a cup of tea, hot chocolate and/or ice water.

1. My favorite month is May because of the warmer weather and the flowers bloom.
2. I love the smell of a fresh breeze.
3. I love to sniff Star-Gazer Lilys.
4. To go out and eat is what I like to have as a treat for breakfast.
5. The hobby I enjoy most is reading.
6. My oh my!
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I’m looking forward to spending time with family, tomorrow my plans include errands, computer to-dos and Sunday, I want to have a good time at the wedding!

Has this changed since the arrival of ebooks?
My Response:
Good question!!  I have wondered what I would do since getting an EReader.  First it would depend on destination, how long we will be away for and reason for travel.  No matter of the above, I would take a minimum of 2-3 books, more if length of vacation is longer than a long weekend and/or 3 day getaway.  I think that I would probably leave the EReader at home even though it would be much easier transporting, packing and even purchasing extra books.  But when hubby and I think “vacation”, it is either to Aruba or a cruise.  And under those circumstances, I would worry that the EReader would have a higher chance of either getting damaged and/or stolen if we were to leave it by a beach chair.  So the PBs win…they come on vacation!!

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!
