I got the first two books of the Millenium Trilogy for Christmas (since the Virgo in me prefers my books to match, and the last one isn’t out in paperback yet) and I cannot put it down. I’m about halfway through and let me tell you, my Christmas tree is in no . . . → Read More: Wordless Wednesday – The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo  I hate birds. Maybe it’s Hitchcock’s fault, maybe it’s from reading The Dark Half by Stephen King, but birds just freak me out. I don’t trust them – nothing should be able to poop on you from above.

It’s beginning to feel and . . . → Read More: Getting in the Christmas spirit This video combines so many of my favourite things: Christmas, flash mobs, malls. It was filmed at the Welland Seaway Mall (I’ve shopped there!) on November 13 and it totally made me cry – I’m blaming the pregnancy hormones. Thanks to Alphabet Photography for organizing Robert Cooper and the Chorus Niagara to perform at the food court, . . . → Read More: Hallelujah Chorus at the Food Court  In Flanders Fields In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below.
