#challengetowrite

I missed a few of these prompts :( This entry is just a catch up one. I will blog later about other things!

6/3-   Who is one of your favorite Authors and why?
Robin Hobb. She has created a world I can really get lost in and characters I can believe in. I have read 5 (on #6) of her books that all follow the life of a royal bastard named FitzChivalry and his Beloved Fool. I have laughed, cried and been afraid for these characters, sometimes all in one chapter! I will be extremely heart broken when I finish this series, but also I will be richer for having known these characters!
6/4-   What is one of your favorite grill recipes?
I am Pascaterian, meaning I only eat sea food, so I don't really grill often. And honestly I haven't tried any good fish recipes for the grill yet so I cannot really answer this question.
6/5-   What is one of your favorite flowers?
I have 2 favorites. Daisies are one. When I was a little girl my Dad would bring them to me from his work, they used to grow wild behind the building and in the sidewalks. I won't allow anyone else to give me daisies because of this. The other favorite are Orchids. I just love how different they are.

Okay, that's it for now. I will be back later for other updates including: squats, yesterdays activities, green onion update and what we are working on this weekend! 
Leave me some comments! I will respond.

Relax

Little monster is at school. Time to take a day for pampering and relaxing.  What better way than with a relaxing bath? Pictured is how I relaxed today. The bath salts are handmade by a friend of mine, lavender scented! You can find any number of her things by visiting her Facebook page: Nemesis Productions/Spooky Grrrl Bath and Body. Also, who says you can't enjoy a glass or 2 of wine while the monsters are at school? It's not like you are downing an entire bottle! My choice for today is this lovely moscato from Madria Sangria. It's so tasty!! Of course no relaxing bath is complete without a scented candle or good book! My book of choice is my current read: Fool's Fate by Robin Hobb. How can you not feel relaxed after this? How do you relax while the monsters are away?
