2) Diary of a Wimpy Kid. Okay, so after that Cheese Touch post, I thought I'd look into it more. I have my kids read to me a few pages of their books, and when I get to a student reading Diary of a Wimpy Kid, I always laugh. On Thursday the part a kid read to me was how "Shel Silverstein is an author who wrote poetry for kids, but he looks more like a bearded burglar." I watched the Wimpy Kid Movie last Friday night. I'd check out the books from the library and read them in full, but there are a zillion holds. So I'll probably just have to buy them. My kids keep asking why we don't have Wimpy Kid books in our class library anyway. I'm like 2.5 years late jumping on this band wagon, but whatever.
3) Pumpkin pie with lots of Cool Whip. It's like Thanksgiving every time I taste a bite. It also reminds me of my great-grandma, and how she'd bake pies every Thanksgiving and she'd hold me in front of the fire and we would look for fire creatures in the logs together. Fire creatures are like cloud creatures, but better, because every time the logs break or burn through, something new transforms right in front of your eyes. It's also a lot more cozy. I think of her every Thanksgiving. Miss you, Grammy.
5) Sleeping At Last. I'm majorly behind on their music, as I'm still listening to their October songs from Yearbook, and it's now November. Also, I need to catch up on all of the other albums they've ever done. But I'm liking what I'm hearing.
And how gorgeous is all the artwork done by Geoff Benzing?
6) Typewriters. Okay, so I've been liking them for a good while. Sadly, I don't own one. If I could have this one I would just die of happiness.
