Waiting on Wednesday- Sweetly By Jackson Pearce

02 Jun, 2010 by in sisters red, sweetly 1 comment

Our Waiting on Wednesday is Sweetly by Jackson Pearce. I read her first in the Series “Sisters Red” back in January as part of the Mundie Moms ARC tour and loved it! Then last night while chatting with the author, I hear she is re-working the fairy tale Hansel and Gretel! I am SO excited! One of my favorite fairy tales re-told by an amazing author. As described on Jackson’s website… “SWEETLY is a modernization of Hansel and Gretel and a companion book to SISTERS RED and FATHOMLESS”

Can’t wait for the release in 2011. In the mean time, and while we are still waiting for the release of Sisters Red #1 to stores, enjoy her teaser trailer.

Custom Mermaid Lego

02 Jun, 2010 by in mermaid, siren 11 comments

Searching for SIREN items I stumbled upon TheBeachGnome. First of all those really are two of my favorite things…beaches and gnomes. Second of all our names are the same and she is a SAHM as well. We’ve had fun shooting emails back and forth. She’s generously donated a custom mermaid lego girl…”My name is Heather and I am a stay at home mom to 3 boys. I love to create and I have a list a mile long of things I want to make. So many things in nature are magical and inspire me. I am an eclectic “artist”. I guess I’d consider myself an ADHD crafter. I want to try it all!

Description
A beautiful mermaid with some bling. Her shiny silver tail reflects the sunlight as she swims through the water. She is a woman of many moods, her head can be turned to reveal a pleasant smile or an anguished grimace. She is approximately 2 ¼ inches tall.

Teaser Tuesday is a weekly book meme
hosted by Miz B. of Should Be Reading.

Here’s how it works:
Grab a book that you are currently reading
Turn to any page and grab two teaser sentences from that page
Make sure it’s not a spoiler in case anyone wants to read the book
Include the author and name of the book

“She was outside my head, calling to me from the crystal chandeliers above, the pictures lining the walls, the rug beneath my feet. You’ve come so far…Please don’t go…”

p 110 Siren by Tricia Rayburn
