I'm linking up with Lena for this week's Tuesday 10. This week's 'theme' was Blogger's Choice, and I decided to steal a theme from weeks previous that I missed and do 10 things I love about the place I live. So, here are my: It's a big city (population-wise) that...
Currently
Current Book: Naamah's Blessing by Jacqueline Carey. This one's been sitting by the wayside forever, because I know something bad is about to happen in the book and I don't want to read that part, haha. Current Playlist: Nothing. I don't listen to music while I work,...
Liebster What?
I have apparently been nominated for the Liebster Award, by both Mia and Manda (two fun ladies whose blogs you should check out, fyi). 'Liebster' means dearest in German, and the chain-letter-esque blog award is meant to showcase blogs with less than a certain amount...
