Episode 3 - The One with the Insomniac and the History Buff






What’s on the needles still -  Vilai by Cookie A. BMF STR Lightweight in Titania Size 1 2.25 mm Hiya Hiya needles (Not shown because there is NOTHING to show)

US 2 in Wollmeise 100% in a pretty red color that makes me so happy!

What’s on the Nails – Julep Petra with two coats and Nicole by OPI top coat plus and Seche Vitae as the two top coats. Will see how it goes with renewing it with Nicole by OPI than SV because of the shrinkage.

Was going to do some fun St. Patrick’s Day, but decided to wait until next week.

The Coffee - http://www.sanmarcocoffee.com/ Don’t do the peanut butter!!!!

(NEW SEGMENT!) Book talkThe last nude by Ellis Avery (delightful read, delicious prose, wasn’t sure in beginning. Not for kids under 20 though). http://www.amazon.com/The-Last-Nude-Ellis-Avery/dp/B0085S8VWI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1362257932&sr=8-1&keywords=The+last+nude

If interested in who is Tamara De Lempicka and her art: http://www.delempicka.org/

The Wikipedia article is not good enough. The librarian in me cringes and will not put it in if it does not have enough citations and references. If you want to use that as a baseboard, go for it. But I think the above links will be a better start.

Beloved by Toni Morrison – love love love. Read it during time of Roots. High school teacher (always said it was difficult, but it wasn’t. Why it took so long). I really think this should be high school recommended (necessary) reading. http://www.amazon.com/Beloved-Toni-Morrison/dp/1400033411/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1362257977&sr=1-2&keywords=beloved

Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follet – what I am reading now. Seems interesting so far. Still getting to know the parts to make up the novel. http://www.amazon.com/Pillars-Earth-Ken-Follett/dp/B002570J0M/ref=sr_1_5?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1362258025&sr=1-5&keywords=pillars+of+the+earth+by+ken+follett

(NEW SEGMENT!) My wish List – Ninja Polish A England Jane Eyre http://ninjapolish.com/product.php?productid=18247&cat=368&page=1

Announcements – Still working on Itunes access. Blip definitely not an option. Trying to get an Itunes-compatible RSS feed using my blogspot and feedburner.

Birthday Week- so I don’t think I am going to podcast next week because it will be the week of my birthday (Friday, March 8th)! We’ll see. Mani/Pedi on Thursday. Day of going to Fondue. Weekend with parents. Etc etc etc.
