..using Janey's idea of reading from a favorite children's book. I love this idea.
When I mentioned it to The Blondster, she told me she wanted to choose the one I read. So, there you go. I'll be reading one of her favorite 'read to me, Mommy' books from when she was very young.
Can't wait to hear yours!!
In Other News....
1.Happy St. Patrick's Day!!! It's also our 10th wedding anniversary today. We're going out soon, to a French restaurant called, oddly enough, The Bastille, in Old Town Alexandria. (Irish heritage that I am, I called an upscale Irish bar and restaurant called O'Connell's, also in Old Town, to see if we could get dinner reservations there. The guy just laughed in my ear.)
2.McK (see link on sidebar) dreamed a weird dream, baby. She dreamed Whirl and I went on a date. She has a contest. Go check it out! You can bet your ass I'm writing a contest entry for that one. Due in by Friday.
3. EE's Book Chat for Neil Gaiman's book, The Graveyard Book, is coming next week. I've never read Neil Gaiman, in all honesty, had never heard of him before a couple of years ago, but I can tell you, this book of his is a wonderful read.
4. The Blondster has art being displayed in a gallery exhibit in Old Town, and there will be a reception for she and her fellow artists this weekend. I'll post pics and links next week, after our Voice Thingy this weekend.
Goin' out now to tie one on with the French. Bye for now!

Happy anniversary.
And talking of dates, what say we get together in dream space sometime to plan our revenge on that wicked bear from Down Under?
Happy anniversary to you and JB. I hope the nosh is good at the Posh Frog place.
Even though it was my idea - I am clueless about what to read for the voice thing. Maybe I'll ask the kids for suggestions.
Good Luck to blondster. And a very Happy St Paddy's Day.
Beannachtaí Lá Féile Pádraig Oraibh.
Happy anniversary! We just celebrated our 11th - got you by one year.
As far as revenge goes. My claws are sharp and ready.
Happy anniversary. And good luck to the Blondster
A children's book?
Can someone read an excerpt from my ms? PLEASEOHPLEASEOHPLEASE!!!
:-) Okay, i'll stop whining....
Sounds fun!!! Robin, I love when you do these group activities!!
Sorry I've been busy with Book Roast stuff, but things should settle down in a day or two as we rotate around...
Skype? Let me know!!
Oh wait. Did I miss an anniversary message? I just read the voice thingy and got all excited! Happy Anniversary!!!
:-)
Hi!
Just popping on early to say, um, hi.
Happy anniversary!
Happy Anniversary! Yum.
Connor gets home on Friday (HURRAH!) and so I'll ask him to pick something for me to read - it also gives me a way to remind him that it's Mothering Sunday and he bloody well better get me flowers or a plant or a stick out of the gutter or SOMETHING.
Happy (belated) anniversary! How was the dinner? Hope you got the full authentic French experience: did they treat you with appropriate disdain and sneer at your choice of wine?
Hi ril!
How's that baby boy of yours?
The dinner was good, and the servers weren't even all that snobby. And they were packed on a Tuesday St. Patrick's Day night, so maybe there's hope yet, honey.
I'm an inch away from being vegetarian, however, and as you can imagine, the pickin's were slim for me. I ordered the one veggie dish they had - a risotto with winter squash. Pretty good.
Are you doing a children's book with us?
Nah, sorry, I can't. It's a holiday weekend here, which means my time is not my own...
I wanna read Chris's book but I can't get her blog comments to work. AGH!
McK - we celebrated 11 years in December!
Robin - Happy good luck and stuff :)
Congrats on the anniversary!
Don't think I'll manage to make this one. Can't get to a decent mic before then. Still, I'll definitely tune in!
I just might be able to squeeze this in.
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!! (belated)
I haven't managed it this time. Sorry.
