Meanwhile, in Rivendell . . .

("What I'm loving right now" that I don't often talk of on this blog, that is;D) ~ My bed coverlet It looks rather pink in this picture, but it's actually a deep purple color, and OH MY GOODNESS.  I wish you guys could reach through the screen and touch this thing.  It. is so. soft.  Pure luxuriance.  (But it was a bargain buy!)  :D ~ Old little chests (why does that sound like an oxymoron?) Siiigghh…I use these lovely little boxes for rather unromantic purposes, I'm afraid (such as storing hair elastics and bobby pins), but hey, I need to have some  excuse for buying them, right?;) ~ The TV show Leverage  Or, basically, Parker and Hardison, because Pardison!   They are just so adorable .  Seriously, though.  That show is adorbs;) ~ Howard Keel movies …I just…what... My mother has accused me of swooning every time Howard Keel opens his mouth, but hey .  Have you heard  ...

#1:   Happy St. Patrick's Day, lovelies!!!   St. Patrick's Day (or St. Paddy's Day, as we often call it) has always been a pretty big thing in our household, since we're all slightly Celtic-crazed;) We'll probably have a small family party later tonight, with lots of potatoes and music and such, haha.  Do you all have anything particular you do for St. Paddy's Day?:) #2:   A little schedule for you I just wanted to be honest with you all and say this - for the next couple of posts, I'll probably be alternating every other post with a book tag.  Sorry, sorry!  But…I just really love a good book tag, and there are a few out there right now which I'm really looking forward to filling out.   Another reason - ahem - is that I'm a bit hard-up for post inspiration right now.  Ideas?  I'd appreciate them, I can assure you. Random sweet picture.  Because Henri and Danielle.

*sheepishly*  Hey, guys, I know, I know , this is the second book tag in a too-recent amount of time, but I can't resist. So, Paperdollmom over at  Haunted Verse  created a book tag a couple days ago, and I'm quite excited to fill it out.  (By the way, you should all check out her blog--it's awesome!) 1.  Sand   " Shore sands seem to get everywhere, even in places you wouldn't want, leaving that uncomfortable irritating feeling. What book have you read that has left you uncomfortable, whether you finished the book or not?"  There was this one book I bought on a whim at a thrift store a long while ago … I started it, but it was making me feel very uncomfortable, even though I couldn't quite put my finger on why.  So I stopped;) 2.  Sun   " The summer sun always feels so warm and cozy on your skin. What book have you read that made you feel warm and cozy?"  Ooh … there are quite a few…maybe Hattie Big Sky (by ...

SO. MANY. FEELS. I honestly don't even know how I'll "do" this review.  My feelings are so conflicted and jumbled and raw and I can't even.  This review will most likely make no sense whatsoever unless you have seen the third season of RH, and even then it might be difficult, haha. How can I start to blog about this last season?  The first half was…honestly, pretty pathetic, but - but - but the second half!   How am I supposed to articulate what I thought of the ending of a series that totally captivated me and totally devastated me and totally uplifted me? Very well, I'll try.  (By the way, spoilers out the whazoo.  This is basically a venting review, and herein I will make virtually no attempt at coherence or self-control.  Just so ya know.) I'll start with my thoughts on characters in this series first, and then move from there (be prepared for INTENSE squealing, ranting, "I was like…", tears, "But seriously…", caps-...
