(So, it’s my new goal to title all of my posts with cheesy song lyrics)
Did I tell you I’m training for a 10-K?
Oh, I didn’t?
I’ll wait for you to finish laughing.
All done? Good!
So, yes, I’m training for a 10-K. Which, I discovered after looking it up is 6.21 miles. Which is about 6.2 miles farther [...]
Okay, I couldn’t pick just one.
The two winners of the book are…
Drum roll please…
Tammy (with her Bellmoss creature–nice use of puma)…
And Kate (with her monster, Clairabell)!
Both Tammy and Kate will receive a copy of Andrew’s On the Edge of the Dark Sea of Darkness.
Oh, and Aaron is my honorable mention winner, with his two-headed dog, [...]
Haven’t had time to really mull over the contest entries (my mom’s in town), so it may be a few days. Sorry everyone! Hopefully I’ll post the winner soon, and get your book in the mail!
Okay, so I have an extra copy of Andrew Peterson’s On the Edge of the Dark Sea of Darkness. And I wanted to come up with some clever way to give it away. So here’s my idea.
On the Edge of the Dark Sea of Darkness is full of scary, fantastical creatures–toothy cows, horned hounds and [...]
It’s 2 in the morning, but my mind is racing. Snow swirls outside my window, and it would be the perfect time to crawl under my quilts. But I can’t. My mind is filled a fantastic land called Skree.
I don’t read many fantasy books. My bookshelves contain few otherworldly volumes, besides The Chronicles of Narnia [...]
Dear Boston,
Can we be BFF? On my recent trip to your fair city, you made me so happy. Your subway system was delightful. Your people were nice to me when I stood on a busy street corner looking at an upside down map. You regaled me with your history, your beauty and your character.
But Boston, [...]
Well, not really. But Compassion just started a corporate blog, and I just had my first entries posted. They aren’t my typical blogs (nothing about me maiming myself, and no passive aggressive letters) but it was fun to sit down with some of our execs and find out their dreams for the ministry. So, you [...]
I love words. And I haven’t stolen a blog idea in a while. So I will accomplish both right now.
I literally get chills from a well-turned phrase. So, I would like to post for you, in no particular order, some of my favorite song lyrics. Consider this part 1. Because I know as soon as [...]
I feel like the most random things happen to me. I think I would make a pretty good reality show. Or a sitcom. Except, I’m kind of boring. Except when I’m being an idiot.
An example, you ask? Why, of course.
I just bought a KitchenAid mixer. Which was easily the highlight of the month. Which tells [...]
Wanna hear about a pet peeve of mine? Of course you do. That’s why you’re reading my blog.
Cell phones. They’re a mixed blessing. A double-edged sword if you will.
On the one hand, cell phones are convenient. I can call people from anywhere. From a crowded airport. A stranded car on a snowy street. The comfort [...]
