    A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness is a wonderful, in depth look to a world of witches, vampires and daemons. This story delves into a fantasy world of such detail, all while keeping you firmly rooted in modern day England. While this novel is to a point about a forbidden love between species, I do not know if it would be the right fit for a “Twihard” or readers of that nature.  Read more >

    I have been writing this post over and over in my head the last couple weeks. I just am not sure I have the words, not sure I can convey the emotion of all this. I am going to do my best, bare with me… ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Friday 3/18- I am at work and about 9:30 in the morning by cell vibrates in my pocket. I sneak it out for a look and see a 609 area code calling me. I grew up in New Jersey and know the area code, but most of my contact with people from my home state is limited to FaceBook.  Read more >

    Caleb's Crossing by Geraldine Brooks was a pleasure to read. While it took me a few chapters to become adjusted to the manner of speech the narrator was using, once I did the story swept me away. It gave a very different view to those early times of our country, from both an Indian and a Pilgrim's perspective.  Read more >

    I was born on March 20, 1983 in a tourist trap of a town in southern New Jersey. I don't know if I was born during the night or day, I don't know if my mother had an epidural, I don't know if she was alone. I don't know if she ever held me, or even looked at me.  Read more >

    Yep, that's me. Jim and I came to the conclusion within the last couple months that I need to return to work full time. I have been fortunate enough these last 2 years to only have to work 2 nights a week, and I am so grateful for the time I had home with my babies. BUT, if we ever want to be able to buy a house in this market it is something that needs to happen.  Read more >

  6. He's a Father, not a Babysitter

    My husband is a great Daddy. He adores his baby boys and really enjoys them. That's something that I am almost jealous of, I feel as though I get too caught up in when they ate, when they napped, and whether their faces are clean that I FORGET to play, and really enjoy the beauty that is my babies.  Read more >

    I'm having one of those days. Nothing is fitting into my day as seamlessly as it did yesterday, and I'm not fitting into my pants as well either. Nothing like a fat day to get you thinking about life. I'm really feeling stretched too thin(and not in the weight department) lately. I am predominatly a SAHM, but I do work a night or two a week for some extra spending money. I am a wife.  I also am a part-time student, working towards my RN. I have been feeling as though, while I am suceeding in all of these things I'm trying to do, I'm just not doing any of them very well.  Read more >
