Secret Recipes for the Modern Wife: All the Dishes You'll Need to Make from the Day You Say "I Do" Until Death (or Divorce) Do You Part Book review

Secret Recipes for the Modern Wife: All the Dishes You'll Need to Make from the Day You Say "I Do" Until Death (or Divorce) Do You Part

by Nava Atlas (Goodreads Author)

Ms. Atlas has created a scrumptious little tidbit to entice the reader into fits of pure giggles! The witty recipes are fun for ANYONE who has ever been in a relationship involving someone other than their cat. Secret Recipes for the Modern Wife made a lovely little retreat from a stuffy kitchen overflowing with the same, tired old dishes of stress, worry and boredom. Ms. Atlas has peppered in just the right amount of sarcasm and wit to blend with the cool retro visuals. 

I highly recomend this sweet read to curb the appetite even the most ravenous of readers! 

5 stars

Are Lobsters Ambidextrous?: An Imponderables' Book Review

Are Lobsters Ambidextrous?: An Imponderables' Book 
by David Feldman, Kassie Schwan (Illustrator)

David Feldman has taken all of those 'I wonder' questions and turned them into very conspicuous 'Aha' answers. He leaves no stone unturned to get to the core of the elusive 'Deer in the headlights' or 'Why seagulls congregate in mall parking lots' quandary. Using colorful phrasing and proven fact, Mr. Feldman keeps his readers wanting more and having to ask less... a total win/win! Are Lobsters Ambidextrous? is an enjoyable read for the weekend or a welcome break during your daily commute. 

I highly recommend this book to anyone who has ever asked "Why..."!

Now that I have your attention, I'll let you in on a little secret- I have absolutely no flippin' idea what I'm doing! I'm delving back into books & I wanted to be able to share my thoughts & feelings. Shouldn't be too hard, right?! We'll see about that...

I'm currently reading :

    The Lost Prophecies , by The Medieval Murderers thanks to my lovely daughter Erin. When I'm done, I'll post a review to let you glimpse the machinations of my melted mind (thanks to my children).

I'm also SUPER excited to be receiving several books from Goodreads just by being chosen in their First Reads giveaways!

I've won:

      1. The Feasts of Lesser Men  by Stephen Parrish

      2. Bloodline: A Sigma Force Novel by James Rollins

      3. Waterborne (Seaborne, #3) by Katherine Irons

      4. Rainshadow Road (Friday Harbor, #2) by Lisa Kleypas

      5. Darwin's Ghosts: The Secret History of Evolution by Rebecca Stott

As I receive these & read them, I will also post reviews...

    Finally, I'm signed up to do a read-a-long this month. What is that you may ask? Basically it is an online book group that will read a chosen book in certain increments, and ask/answer questions over the material. It's a great way to enhance AND have fun with your reading experience! I'm going to read:

                                                                                                                                    

So, until we meet again, keep the kids out of the flowerbed & the books in your hand!
