End of 2009 - Beginning of 2010
Hope it's okay to post a meme here. My answers are below.
1. What books did you receive for Christmas (or other celebration) ?
2. Was there a favorite?
3. What book(s) are you reading to end 2009 and begin 2010?
1. I received Patrick Swayze's autobiography, which was on my list, and David Tennant's biography, which was a delightful surprise. I also received Jamie's Food Revolution by Jamie Oliver.
2. Although I am excited about the biographies, I'm absolutely thrilled with the Jamie Oliver cookbook. Jamie is my favorite "celebrity chef". I love to watch his shows, and have gotten a number of great recipes from them over the years. I sat down Christmas afternoon and went through the whole book and it now sports a little forest of green post-it flags marking recipes to try. I've already done three, which were big hits.
3. I like to start a new year with a biography. I don't know why, but it's become a custom of mine. I'm going to start with Patrick's over the weekend.
