Second Chance Challenges discussion


Right now I'm mostly in need of O, E and T's.
And soon I'm going to need some Y books, too.



E authors are the best. Especially if they write titles that start with vowels as well :D


.."
that works for THIS challenge, but like Barb said, when you have the E authors who write a book starting with a vowel AHHHH decisions!!!


Also, progress finally rears its head in the form of two finished flavors, as well as using up all my V's \o/

If anyone needs me I'll be unconscious in the corner with my Kindle under my head.

Yesterday I was a bit under the weather (previous night's dinner bit back in the morning, migraine in the afternoon), and by evening all I wanted was some ice cream. So I went to the Target down the street from my house, and as I stood looking at the Ben and Jerry's, two things were going through my mind.
1) Finished that flavor, finished that flavor...
2) Is that flavor new? I'M NOT ADDING IT TO MY CHALLENGE.
Then I took my Phish Food and went home. Deeeeelicious. But seriously, does this happen to anyone else?





Did you remember you can use each book twice? Once for title and once for author??
That is one of my favourite parts of this challenge...makes it seem like it is going faster (although it is still going to take forever!) lol

HALF BAKED :D That's my favorite, but they didn't have it.
Welcome aboard, Joanne! Settle in for the long haul!

Thanks Candyland!
