Hello Kitty Daryl? – day 16
Norman Reedus, aka, Daryl on the Walking Dead, tweeted a picture of his iphone cover. It’s a Hello Kitty Daryl and I love it! Had to have my own, isn’t it fantastic?!

Chocolate Goodness – day 15
Chocolate Goodness. This is so yummy, I had to share.
Take a tortilla and sprinkle 1 tbsp., chocolate (semisweet morsels chopped), 1/2 tbsp. sugar, and 1/4 tsp. cinnamon over half of the tortilla. Fold the tortilla.
Put a skillet over medium heat, cook quesadilla, flipping once, until gooey filling melts, about 2-4 minutes per side. Remove and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Cut in half and serve warm. Super delicious! Enjoy!

Strawberries – day 14
It’s strawberry season! There are so many ways to eat these delicious little bites of goodness. Straight from the bucket, with a smidge of sugar, with some cool whip, in a delicious smoothie (see my post at Wicked Green Smoothies for a recipe), on waffles, dipped in chocolate, on cake…. How do you eat your berries? Do you pick them yourself, go to a farmer’s market or roadside stand, or at the store?

There’s no use trying – day 12
Alice laughed: “There’s no use trying,” she said; “one can’t believe impossible things.”
”I daresay you haven’t had much practice,” said the Queen. “When I was younger, I always did it for half an hour a day. Why, sometimes I’ve believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.”
-Alice in Wonderland.

Sexy Cops – day 11
Hee hee, did I get your attention? Good. Remember Monroe, the sexy hardass cop? Well, he’s going to get his own book. There’s so much to his story and so many questions. Which book does he get? Well, we’ll have to see how demanding he gets. It won’t be book 3, that spot goes to a villain…

Who could forget this scene? – day 10
I think we’ll finish our theme of good looking men with Ryan Gosling. Loved him in Crazy Stupid Love! My favorite scene is when Emma Stone comes and kisses him in the bar and of course the scene where she asks if he’s photoshopped -grins

Lookout for Zombies – day 8
I’m getting into the flow of things but realized a zombie was after me. Well actually, I just wanted to post a picture of sexy Norman Reedus aka Daryl on The Walking Dead. I adore his character. Anyway, Monroe is a hard-ass Scottish cop in book 2 with a big problem…in book 1 he drank a lot but wow, in book 2 he confessed he’s got a drinking problem. Mainly from the cocked up childhood and trauma he’s been through. Didn’t plan for him to have this defect but there it is. I’m happily motoring along and bam! there’s a zombie I have to deal with -grins
