Ink and Bone (The Great Library #1) by Rachel Caine
2. London
At the time that this post goes up, my husband and I will be preparing to board a plane for a Valentine's Day weekend in London!
3. Mexican food
Okay, this is probably one of the main reasons I am excited to visit London. I love Mexican food so much! And okay, Italy is great, but they don't have Mexican food. D'oh!! I am thinking that I may just have a meal of guacamole and churros. That's really all you need, right?
4. Piyo
5. Voting
The bottom line is that I am not going to mention who I am voting for. But I am so happy to live in a country where I am able to vote. I know there are many countries where women (and men too, for that matter) would love that chance. I also know that women were not always given the chance to vote in America, so I feel like it would be a betrayal to my gender to not vote. When I was younger, I didn't always vote in the primaries or the midterm elections. Now I know what a mistake that is. I am so happy that I was able to mail in my absentee ballot for the primaries from Italy. So if you live in America (or ANY country that allows voting), I hope you VOTE whenever you get the chance. Make your voices heard!
6. Me Before You movie trailer
What have you been loving this week?
Ha, I'm a huge political geek as well-I LOVE election season!! And I've never heard of piyo, I'll have to look it up :) Have a fantastic Valentines getaway!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Library Huntress! I absolutely love all the Piyo workouts. It is such a great way to work on my flexibility, which is a huge weakness of mine. :)
DeleteAwesome! Have fun in London!
ReplyDeleteThanks Lisa!
DeleteOh! Crying over here... I can't wait for Me Before You!!! Have fun in London, you two <3 And a very happy Valentine's Day!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Ramona! Yes, how emotional is that trailer?? Even though it makes me cry every time, I just can't help but watch it.
DeleteI really love this post, it's a great way to learn more about you! I LOVE Mexican food, especially tacos :D London looks absolutely gorgeous, I can't wait to travel there and experience and see everything it has to offer! I've seen the Me Before You trailer SO MANY TIMES. Ugh it looks amazing ;D
ReplyDeleteRachel @ A Perfection Called Books
Thanks Rachel! London was amazing as always, though a bit cold. And I did have some wonderful tacos, and lots of guacamole. And yeah, I just can't keep myself from watching that trailer over and over again. I am such a sadist!
DeleteInk and Bone! I've been meaning to read that!
ReplyDeleteHope you and your husband have an awesome time in London!! Mexican food is quite delicious, hope you get to eat it to your heart's content!
Cyn, oh I just finished Ink and Bone and it is SO GOOD!!! Seriously, you need to READ IT!!
DeleteNo Mexican food in Italy? Okay, I can never, ever like there. Here in Texas, you can find it everywhere, and it is GREAT! I love it. I grew up on it, it is my favorite, and I think I would honestly starve to death without it around. Is it good in London?
ReplyDeleteLyn, the Mexican food in London is AMAZING!! I think I ate my weight in guacamole. Ha. So good. That is the one drawback to living in Italy. I kind of love it otherwise.
