  2. Maggie,
    Read the book and it was very good. Love the Cath mug. She makes a cover for the iPhone that I might just have to have.

    Have a great weekend.

  3. I saw a student walking down the hall at school yesterday in a pink sweat shirt: "I love Pink" and pink is my color, but then I thought "I'm tired of pink, what new color could I adopt? Aqua, I thought. Somehow, aqua just doesn't do it, does it? What thoughts we have as we walk about. Nothing better than a cup of tea, a sweet, and good book to put us in the pink. Have a good week-end.

  9. Sounds like a book and a cup of tea is a great plan! We had snow flurries here this morning so a nice snuggle by the fire may be in order tonight. Have a nice weekend!

  27. Hi Maggie,

    First of all, thanks so much for leaving comments on my blog. That certainly makes blogging extra special! :)

    Oh, that's a perfect post for Pink Saturday. How do you like the book? I am always up for recommendations! :)

    Are you interested in winning a white cotton T-shirt with a pink heart and the words I ♥ Oktoberfest in size L? Then come over to my blog until Sunday, 22nd January, and leave a comment here .

    What about having a look at my Advent and Christmas and getting an impression of Munich's Christmas market ? Moreover, you can see some frosty weather photos and pictures from a walk around my neighborhood on January 1st. Finally, there are photos of New Year's Eve . Of course, comments are welcome -- it's always great to hear what you think!

    Have a wonderful 2012,
    your blog friend from Munich, Germany,
    Birgit

  28. What a wonderful pink interlude! I have not read The Postmistress~ I almost downloaded the audio version several times to listen to since my TBR pile is overflowing & I enjoy listening to a book driving & walking the dogs. It got mixed reviews, did you enjoy it?

    SO glad you're joining FFT!! Looking forward to your review of The Night Circus :)

  31. I am having problems with your blog on my blog roll. Your blog is not alone (about a dozen others that I know of....) Just thought you would want to know! I hope I have the problem fixed. By the way, I enjoyed The Post Mistress! :D
