reading.

reading is something i love to do...when i have the time to do it. i used to voraciously read when i was a teen. especially history. i've never been a big fan of mathematics, but put on a documentary about the revolutionary or civil war and i'm there {...yep, i know some of you are snoring now...}. i guess since college, reading has fallen to the wayside...big time...

but i try to make it a point to read one or two news articles on the web.
and this is an interesting read...i'm halfway through it too.

here's some other fun stuff i dipped into the past few days.



and here's what i'm going to browse through next:



i LOVE bon appetit...it's one of my current subscriptions. {yay! it's still in its wrapper}. gourmet is another one i subscribe to, but i think i don't think i'll renew...just a lot of travel, arts and leisure thrown into a ton of exotic cooking that...well...i just don't have time for. and...let's face it...my days of extensive, international traveling are on hold until the college tuition{s} are paid up. {*gulp*...so, what DO you think college will cost in 15 years...???}. actually...i've never been overseas. something i'd love to do someday, but...for now...

in other news...yes, you DID see correctly...a new CTMH Idea Book has been issued brimming with all the goodness of summer and more! i've got a few pics here of some fabulous new stamps, embellishments and chipboard that are just hot...i can't wait to try some of these out!







wow...so much fun...!
there's just sooo much more that i want to post, but it's too late here. i think i'll post some more pictures in another post in a few days...

in the meantime...sweet dreams to all...i'm off to read...
=)

p.s. by the way...never did get that chipwich...!
p.p.s. i hope everyone has a great holiday weekend!
