Hello Pinkies and Welcome to my first Anniversary with Pink Saturday.
Big Thanks to Beverly @ How Sweet the Sound for starting this meme so we can all meet and enjoy Pink every week.
I have met so many lovely people in my first year blogging all thanks to Pink Saturday.
It started with one question. As I was looking on ebay for Easter goodies I came across some lovely felted creations by Laurie @ Charming Designs. I won one of her sweeties and in corresponding she asked me “Do you have a blog?” This got me thinking, usually a dangerous thing, and I had recently visited a friend’s blog and loved what she shared and how she shared it. Ginger @ bearbits is an amazing bear artist and has the super best imagination so I knew I would love her blog. I also can never have as cool a blog as Ginger but I can try!
Then I made a list of things to talk about found blogger used my new identity “pupylov “ I wrote a post from my list (only 2 on list have made it so far) and sent an email to all my list and waited. Laurie was so sweet and ran right over and started following and sent me emails on what else I should do. Pictures, and join a meme. She suggested Pink Saturday which I had seen when I visited Cathy’s site and so I got Beverly’s info, made a pink post and anxiously waited for the list to come up that morning to started visiting. I visited and had others visit me. This led me to my fairy blogmother Ann. She was so sweet and sent me emails offering help before I knew I needed it! Ann was just the first in many of the best friends I never met! Well actually I have some local and have met a few! Still more to add I am at 250+ blogs I follow and 152 followers. I maxed out and had to move some store blogs to Google reader to make room!
Thank you, all of you old and new. I am a better person for sharing the last year with you and it just gets better. I would LOVE to list you all but if you go to my sidebar they are there. Everyone of them are priceless.
I am so glad to join for another year and look forward to the new friends I will meet each week at Pink Saturday!
Hugs, Lisa
Last Saturday after work I stopped by my favorite place in the world, Barnes and Nobles, hey they have Starbucks there!!
I had seen the table stating that they were having a reading/signing by the author
They had these books
and
Now as I was buying my New Moon DVD and I am not made of money I bought the paper back and the bargain versions of these.
I went back at 4pm to hear her talk and read from her latest book
The Girl Who Chased the Moon.
Well ladies she is a sweetie and from right here in NC! I really enjoyed hearing her read and talk about writing. I was so inspired.
Sunday I started reading Garden Spells. Her books are not sequels but I wanted to read them in order! I have never read an author with a voice like hers! She has multiple characters and develops and tells a story for them all. She has hints of Fairy Tales and magic that are just fantastic. She also like to add food, lots of food to her books!
I have finished Garden Spells and cannot wait to start The Sugar Queen and on payday I will back at B&N to get The Girl Who Chased the Moon!
I don’t think I can say enough. I cannot tell you when I have been so excited to read an author!
I hope you will look for her books!
Let me know if you do or if you have read them!
Hugs, Lisa
It’s very exciting that it has fallen on a

So without further ado
The winner is
Congratulations!
