This year I made a goal for myself to read 12 books, one for each month. When I was younger, I loved to read, but you work, live your life and forget about things like this. So, it is November and I am on book number 9 and almost finished with it, it's time to speed read soon! Book number 8 was Eat, Pray, Love and I borrowed it from a friend. This book slowed my down, it was harder for me to get into it because it wasn't written like a mystery novel or adventure story. I enjoyed it but I wasn't reading it thinking ooh what's going to happen next. It read more like a diary or blog to me. The reason I have it in my blog is because it took me 2 months to finish it, I thought that it would be appropriate to thank my friend with a treat and a hand drawn card. A small gesture to show that I am thankful for her loan.
The best job ever and the coolest friends that I ever had were when I worked at a restaurant called the Heartthrob Cafe. It was in downtown St Paul, Minnesota and was so fun! Today we had a get together to catch up and reminisce. This is one of the many good things about facebook, finding people that you wished you never lost contact with. So, today my post is the buttons that I made for this event. We had 'flair' that was a lot more fun and cool than a restaurant chain that I will not name here. We danced and sang birthday songs. The girls wore poodle skirts and we did all of this while wearing in line skates. We were a crazy family and honestly this was one of the best times in my life. Ahhh...memories. In the time spent there somehow the button machine came into my possession. In honor of our gathering, of course I had to make pins. Here are also two murals that I painted at the restaurant. Let me tell you they were tricky! The murals are on glass and when
