Stacking The Shelves #121/Sunday Post #53

Stacking The Shelves is hosted by Tynga's Reviews and Reading Reality as a way to share all the books we got during the week!

The Sunday Post is hosted by Kimberly @ Caffeinated Reviewer. Its a weekly post to showcase what books you got, recap the week, and talk about what will be coming up this week on the blog!

No New Books This Week!!!


It was a good reading week! I ended up getting 4 books read! 2 of them advanced copies! So I started off by finishing last weekend with Beneath The Citadel by Destiny Soria. It was a solid 4 star read. Interesting story line. Then I read Origin and Opposition by Jennifer L. Armentrout. The 4th and 5th books in the Lux Series. Ahhh. So amazing. Absolutely loved them. Both 5 stars. And then to finish of the week, I read my advanced copy of The Darkest Star by Jennifer L. Armentrout, the first book in the spin-off series from the Lux Series featuring Luc. And I really enjoyed that as well. Also a 5 star. Wow, I was not expecting some of those twists JLA threw at us in The Darkest Star. I'm still wrapping my head around that. 

Ana's home! She had such a good time at Nana and Granddad's but she's happy to be home. She's loving all the mommy and daddy cuddles. And being back home with all her toys of course. Lol. She's super happy being home. And she's very excited for this upcoming Wednesday. This Wednesday is when we've decided to go to the pumpkin patch and she cannot stop talking about it! She keeps asking us every day if it's time to go to the pumpkin patch yet. It's so great having her home. We loved our break but we missed her. 

And in more good news, remember over a month ago when I told you guys our microwave quit and we finally got maintenance to come determine if we needed a new one. Well our new one finally came in this week! We have a working microwave again! And this one is modern!!! Guys, seriously, the old one was from the 80's. Like it legit said on the inside, made in 1984. LOL. It's so nice having a modern microwave with buttons and a digital display instead of vague knobs and timers. LOL. And it works like 100% better than that old one!!! :D :D :D The simple thing that make you happy as an adult! Lol.

Wordless Wednesday - Claire Thomas from Food for Thought

I got this recipe from Claire Thomas who hosts the TV Show Food for Thought . She is the cutest, sweetest and so far my favorite tv chef. Her recipes are so easy and she seems to have a talent for making every recipe seem doable. I actually set my alarm on Saturday mornings to get up in time to see her show (when I am not working). This past week, she featured her Australian Pasta which you should really visit her blog and read the back story to why it is named this. Funny!! I also got a wild hair and decided to make her Cream Scones . Here is the pasta sauce while it is simmering. Here is the final dish. Australian Pasta with strawberries (just finished cutting them for the week's snacks, so I threw a few in) and her scones (bc I didn't make bread). Also, Claire if you are reading this, QUESTION - On your blog recipe, you didn't specify searing the sausage and taking them out of the pan while the onions and garlic cook. But in your show, I distinctly remember you keeping t...

90% Raw

I have been working on going raw for over a week now. Seems minimal, but I feel pretty good. So far. I did experience a HUGE day of food withdrawal. Sadly it was at work. LOL My poor boss. I lost it before lunch knowing I was going to have to eat my healthy lunch and all I wanted was crap. It was horrible. I was literally nuts for 20 minutes. Him pushing me to eat crap is what helped me choose to eat my healthy lunch. Ironic, huh? About two hours later, I felt the relief of normal again . (well semi-normal) So far I have struggled the most with making my lunch for work. I have to start making it the night before because I keep hitting snooze til I am running late. Damn. I have to get to sleep earlier. I am trying to leave leftovers in an easy to sort out container that I can just grab and go. My favorite part is grocery shopping. lol And enjoying my meals once I sit down. I am realizing that I am eating much slower and really tasting my food. I still read while I eat, but I notice I am...

Review - Crushed by KC Blake

Title: Crushed The Witch-Game #1 Author: K.C. Blake Publisher: Createspace Publish Date: July 30, 2011 Paperback, 262 pages GoodReads Barnes and Noble (Nookbook $2.99) Amazon I wasn't sure what to expect with this book, but it was on sale, it had some pretty good reviews amongst the blog world, so I thought I'd give it a go. Oddly enough, it was lots of fun. I really enjoyed it. These girls have a game they play every year. They pick boys that they can "crush" which equates to blowing witch dust on them and controlling them. They make fun of them, they play tricks on them and basically make them their slaves. It is cruel, but they don't seem to realize. Until they crush the wrong guy. Zach is a boy with special powers as well. But how long will Kristen try to play with him before he unleashes his fury? Summary - The Noah sisters rule Titan High with their beauty, brains, and magical powers. Each year they play a secret game: Crushed. The girls pick their ...
