*Rooster* Blog Party 2

We have a wonderful country kitchen with a growing Rooster theme. My collection is fairly small compared to many in this get-together but they found a good home in this lil country house.

Roosters are even starting to move into the laundry room!

I'm joining a Rooster Blog party over at BELLA VISTA   Go take a peek at all the handsome Roosters that others are sharing! I'm sure enjoying the beauties!

Never Let You Go - A Book Review

Losing everything has made Lexi hold those she loves tightly. Hell is determined to loosen her grip.

Lexi lives in the shadow of choices her husband made. Especially Grant’s choice to leave seven years ago, without a word. Her relationship with their daughter, Molly, is now the most important thing in her life. Lexi will do anything—work grueling hours, attend church on her only day off, sacrifice financially—just to see Molly smile.

When Grant shows up declaring his intent to re-enter their daughter’s life, Lexi is skeptical of his motives. She soon determines not to let him near Molly. Then a drug dealer named Warden arrives on Lexi’s doorstep, demanding payment of Grant’s old debts.

But that's just the earthly perspective. Staggering supernatural events are spilling into her world in real and shocking ways. Hell's fury is great, but Heaven's power is greater still. In a novel that defies easy categorization, this has all the early buzz of the breakthrough read of 2010.

It has taken me some time to get into this book as it's a different type of book then what I read. After I got into it  I did finish it in about 3 nights. It was an interesting plot, that's for sure! Overall it was an okay book but I'm not sure if I'll read it again so I might pass it on.

Booksneeze has sent me this book to review for free.

Plain Pursuit - An Upcoming Review

Recently I discovered BookSneeze from another blogger and I can't remember from whom it was...Sorry....but today I received this book for me to review. I was surprised to see that it's a brand new book and was packaged nicely and fast shipping. I'll be reading this shortly and posting my review so be on the look-out!

Have any of you heard of BookSneeze? The button is on my sidebar.

What I did With the Chicken....

I made Baked Chicken Speg. tonight. It sure smells good! Wish you could smell it from where your at.

Happy Thanksgiving from Our Family to Yours

Happy Thanksgiving All!

This morning we are watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, eating donuts and drinking hot chocolate which is a tradition for us. Later I will start a small turkey breast and some fixings, not too much this year because DH is in Tennessee with his very sick sister who is still in the hospital.

I'm thankful for God, Family and good friends. I'm also thankful for my House, I love how the sun comes thru the windows and how it shelters us from the world some days.

On another note~ I have broken my camera :( I slipped and fell with it on Sunday and yesterday for "Watcha Working on Wed." it would not take any pics...I'm so depressed as we have no budget for a new camera at this time...Hence for awhile my posts will be without pics :(
