Super Saturday


A few Saturdays ago I asked a dear friend of mine to meet me for an early breakfast. She declined. Something about training for a half marathon or something. But she did agree to meet for coffee and then pop into the antique shops next door. What could be better than having coffee with one of your best friends and her adorable little girl and then going antiquing?! She has this gorgeous collection of glass pieces that I have always admired and for my birthday last year she gave me my first pieces.

Thanks, Jen, for giving me the most wonderful Saturday and for the gorgeous treasures you sent me home with that day.

XM Thriller

Anyone who know me knows how much I love XM. It has a station for all my moods and musical tastes. I usually listen to Good Morning America on 155 in the mornings and Broadminded from 9-12 on 155. And for the month of March XM added a new channel on 63 called Thriller. It is all Michael Jackson and I love it! I always say the my ass gets on fire when I hear Michael he had such great songs with the best beats. I think it all started when my was seven my dad gave my mom a Sony Walkman and Michael's Thriller. I wore the batteries out on that thing. Now the guy freaks me out. I don't know if someone that talented, brilliant and so much fame could possibly have all his marbles and lead a normal life.

Book Club

The ladies met at my home last Thursday to discuss Water For Elephants. I tried to stick with the theme of the circus by serving popcorn and peanuts but of course I had to add chocolate and with chocolate comes wine! How is it possible to not drink the wonderful wines from our Columbia Valley? Our next pick is Under The Banner of Heaven by one of my favorite writers, Jon Krakauer. What are you reading? Any recommendations?
