Sticky Notes

Books and Bikinis Reading Challenge - read 10 books about mermaids, the sea, the beach...by the end of the summer! hopefully soon!
(7 out of 10 read)

Please be patient with the fewer and far-between posts....we have a new 'half' born in April and things are slow as we adjust and try desperately for more sleep. (It's a girl!)

Friday Finds (13) on Saturday


Sorry it's a day late, but I made blackberry jam and we've been...well, busy! I love spring and if you want the recipe, it's 2 C blackberries (or other berries), 2 C sugar, and 2 teas lemon juice and it's very easily doubled or rearranged for how many you have since it's a 1:1 ratio with the sugar. Boil longer if you're at a higher altitude. Maybe 10 minutes for sea-level and about 40+ if you're at 5 - 6000 feet. You can easily can these if you want to - just follow the directions in your Better Homes and Gardens cookbook. :)


Ok, on to books! We've found a couple that look interesting:

Icecore looks interesting. And I was excited to hear there is another Gemma Malley book coming out, but it is the third in The Declaration series. The Returners is Malley's third book, but it is a stand alone title. I was very confused when I started reading it because I didn't see how it fit with the other two. But once I realized it wasn't supposed to fit with the other two, I really enjoyed it! (I hope to review it soon on whatscarolreading.blogspot.com
