{Firefly Lane}

I just finished Firefly Lane by Kristin Hannah last week,....... SO. GOOD. I definitely recommend it 100%. Here is the thing, it's a very emotional book, so if you are super sensitive or a big crier and can't handle it, this is not the book for you! You will be moved to tears, and not just because parts are sad.

I also recently read Water For Elephants by Sara Gruen which was also excellent. And here is a treat for any Twilight/New Moon movie lovers,..... you might want to read this one because Robert Pattinson is supposed to play the lead role in the Water For Elephants movie in 2011!!! (I always prefer to read the book before seeing the movie)

I am feeling great today! It's 6pm and it's SUNNY!!! My husband and I are about to take the pup out for a walk and snap some pictures.

XOXO

{Neptune Whirligigs}

MORE squares??? Yes, Yes,... more squares. At the moment, I am still waiting for the fabric I ordered for the backing on the Simply-A-Bloom quilt, so, I started another quilt top. (*chuckle*) These are super fun to make!

Here's the kicker.... the pattern called for two charm packs with 42 squares each. I used two charm packs with 32(ish) squares. You guessed it,... I am waiting on fabric. I think I'm really bad at timing my fabric purchases!! At the moment I have 32 whirligigs and am waiting on two more Neptune charm packs (which, BTW is not easy to find anymore).

So what do I do?? I did.... I totally did. I started ANOTHER quilt top. This one is proving to be a little more difficult that the last two, so no pictures yet, and I have a feeling this one might take a while. I'll try to get pictures when I have a few good looking squares.

On a totally UNrelated note, I saw New Moon today and loved it! Here is my opinion on this.... Twilight=great book, not-so-great-movie. New Moon=least fav book in the saga, GREAT movie. How many fans do I have with me??
