In the Beginning......

....there was this post.

So, this is my maiden post of my new blog.  I'm popping my book blog cherry, everyone!  But, that isn't all I want this to be about, I also love cooking and baking and I want to share some of my favourite recipes as well.  A word of caution though, a lot of things I cook, I don't have measurements for, so be warned... *wink*

I've been inspired to put words to screen and blog about books by the incomparable Missie over at The Unread Reader.  She is an absolute sweetheart, and not only do I love her blog but I totally adore her!  If you've never checked out her site, I suggest you hop on over there.

As far as the types of books I'll be reviewing... well... right now I'm all over urban fantasy/paranormal romance, although I'd have to say that my reading style is quite eclectic and I'll read just about anything.  

As for me... I live a quiet life with my husband and two cats.  I have been employed in a variety of jobs including, but not limited to: child and youth worker in the mental health field and youth justice field, legal admin, piano teacher, bartender, barrista, hotel receptionist, "customer experience representative' aka I worked in retail, worked at a huge amusement park in the games area.... and the list goes on.  I've lived in 4 countries (including my native Canada) and travelled parts of Europe and the United States.  I have a slight obsession with cheesy television that thankfully my husband indulges me in, and I have my very own gamer account.  Did I just admit that to the cyberworld?  This is why I don't reveal my identity.  Plus I kind of like to envision myself as a superhero with a secret identity.  

So, thank you for stopping by and I hope you enjoy the blog!
