Reading mojo

Standard

Thanks to Annemarie for bringing up ‘mojo’ a bit ago. I do see my mojo in various lights, so to speak. Sometimes I love cross stitching, sometimes I can’t get through a line on the chart in an hour. So lately I haven’t had any reading mojo. I tried a few books, got bored or didn’t understand them (a Nicholas Sparks book and the book Wicked), so I just stopped reading. Altogether. Not me at all.

When Sean and I were in Walmart last week, I went down the magazine and book aisle and ‘The Five People You Meet in Heaven’ stood out like a beacon to me for some reason. I bought it and it sat around until the beginning of this week. I started reading and it’s really good so far! Hooray! Mitch Abbom is a very visual writer and there are some twists that I am liking. So I am recommending this like one of my favorite authors Amy Tan did.

Here is my little strawberry punch needle I made last night. I made it a flip lid for this 4″ basket. I think the loops are bigger as it’s a looser weave fabric. The pattern for the strawberry came from a rubber stamp. Punch needle basket

Feeling better. Only liking Pringles (they have the mini ones and they aren’t greasy, just crisp) and rice cakes. I hope I get my appetite back before Easter.

  1. What a cute idea for a basket cover!

    I just had Pringles last night with my yellow split pea soup. It was a new “Extreme” cheddar cheese flavor. We didn’t realize the “Extreme” meant hot, spicy. It’s a good thing I was eating something with them because they did make the tongue tingle.

    I hope you are feeling up to snuff for the big Easter meal. Are you cooking?

  2. Ooh, I would LOVE to find my reading mojo. I find reading very difficult when I’m working on a book myself, so I’m afraid reading will be a joy of the past for the time being :o(
    Love the strawberry basket, Dianne!
    Hope you will be able to enjoy a hearty Easter meal. I think we’ll be having lamb…

  3. Hi hi,
    Love the strawberry basket, I just bought some really good looking strawberries for Sunday Breakfast to put in a fruit salad.

    Thanks for my easter card too.

    We are having Breakfast here and Lasagne at Barb & Dena’s for Dinner Easter Sunday.

    What are your plans?

    HOPE THE EASTER BUNNY VISITS ALL OF YOU.
