I know it isn’t Thursday. I just found this meme over at Gofita’s Pages and wanted to participate. Mondays and Thursdays are prime TV times at our house due to Bones and House.
Dr. House is quite the grouch and we love him for it. He is played by Hugh Laurie who is known for his [...]

I thoroughly enjoyed this story. I had always thought that it would be too scary and although it had its fearful, creepy moments it was nothing like I expected. The story is told through the journals of the main characters. It begins with Jonathan Harker meeting Count Dracula in his [...]

I realize I’ve been absent for about a week and I’ve missed my blogging friends terribly. My absence was due to our annual Halloween Gala. Last week the countdown to party time began and things were indeed hectic. The party took place on Saturday, October 24th. This year we chose pirates [...]

I just love these Vintage [...]

Stephanie Meyer’s Twilight books have made vampires cool. Everywhere you turn, especially this time of year, there are vampires. I admit I’ve been bitten.
