I especially enjoy your Reading updates 🙂 Those make my Fridays, lol. **waves back**
Instead of reading I am doing some listening ….not quite the same, but it’s working for now. REALLY looking forward to some warm weather & quality time in the sun this weekend, hope you can enjoy it too!

Chocolate Espresso cupcake link doesn’t work for me, but I figured it out.

I laughed out loud at those Pintester crafting fails!
I learnt long ago that I’m useless at those kind of things so I don’t even make the attempt now. 😀
Okay, I came for your erotica book links, but the Pinterest Crafting Fails are cracking me UP. What a great list o’links, I could be reading these all weekend long…
A recent post from Isabel Dare..Taken By The Minotaur Trilogy: 3 Book Bundle (Reluctant First Time Gay Erotica)
I had a big chuckle at the thought of Chaos and Cheez-its 🙂 The cat cardboard characters were hilarious 🙂
A recent post from mrspao..Signs of Spring
I bet I could put the better part of a box on Hannibal before he woke up. He is one mellow cat (and also looks exactly like the one in the link).
Pinterest fails FTW!
That scallop risotto recipe looks great.
Unlike my own Pinterest fail with the deviled egg chicks.
