What a glorious week of weather we had.

50's and on two days 60 degrees!

For us that's a heat wave.

Time to open the windows.

Hear the birds chirping.

Sleep with the windows cracked open.

The snow has melted.

Things are starting to green up again.

and then....

on Saturday it snowed 2 inches!

That's Chicago for ya!

Even though I live an hour from downtown, it sounds much cooler than...

That's Illinois for ya!

Last week I put these up

 

I should have ironed it, but that's what the wind and rain is for.

The wreath needs something, I'm going to go out today and look for some butterflies and ribbon.

Totally am in love with this line from Target.

It does not go with my homes inside decor, so I settled for the gardening gloves.

 When I woke up to the snow on Saturday, I decided to spend the day reading this book.

Seriously fell in love with it.

I could not put it down.

I loved it so much I ran out and bought another of her books The House at Riverton.

I would love to see this made into a PBS mini series like Little Dorrit.

You can check  the author out here.  She has a nice website.

 This weekend I also made a little confession to Brad...

I finally told him I am not a nook girl.

The thing is I never asked for the nook, he thought i was hinting at it because I had brought the marketing tool home.

I was so relieved to have finally said it.

I love book stores and books, and when I fall in love with a book and the author i love to share it.

Yes, you can share with the nook, but it not the same as touching the pages of the written word.

So the first person to leave me a comment that is interested in reading my copy can have it!

The snow is almost all gone ...

again!

Looking forward to a great week of weather and...

Dancing with the Stars! I had given up on this show, but I must say I'm totally looking forward to Kate Gossellin and the possible wardrobe malfunctions of Pamela Anderson...

I'm jut sayin!

 

Here's to books, sharing, dancing, and sunshine!
