I have been avoiding this for a few weeks:
I kind of like books. Okay, I love them. I couldn’t bring myself to visit the store when I first heard because let’s face it, I can’t pass up books – but my bank account also can’t handle the hit it would have taken had I given in to my book obsession. Now that prices are 60-70% off though?
Mine.
I did give myself a limit going in on how much I could spend and you would be so proud – I was $7 under that number. Just because I debated going back for another $3-$5 book makes no difference, I came in just under the wire. Of all the proud moments in my life…
I currently have 2 copies of this book in my possession. Why? Because I borrowed it from the library and can’t get enough – so I bought it. It has some of the most thought-provoking questions in it.
One of the best graphic novels I’ve read. I can’t even begin to explain to you what is so magical about it, which means this is one you’ll have to check out for yourself.
Don’t worry – you didn’t miss anything, I don’t currently have a man in my life but I’ve read great reviews of this cookbook and I figured, what’s good for a man can be good for me, right? Why should they get special treatment? Exactly.
I don’t know much about this blogazine yet, except that by the cover alone – it was worth the purchase.
And my most exciting purchase – at least to me. Noma, the Nordic cuisine cookbook. Have I mentioned I have an obsession with Iceland? This 4.8 pound/368 page cookbook is quite possibly the most beautiful I’ve ever seen. It even has a fold-out map of the Nordic region. Bomb.
Oh…you thought this was it? Well, it’s not – but there are others I can’t divulge at the moment because they may or may not be Christmas gifts. Yep, already thinking about Christmas. Aren’t you?
Stephanie May and I will be taking a little break from the blog until Tuesday to enjoy our extended weekend. Eisley tonight…eeeeeep! Happiest weekend.
Love,
