Random Thoughts: The Bachelor and Apple Strudel

1. The Bachelor is absolutely hilarious this season. SO MUCH DRAMA. I love it.

2. I read Catching Jordan by Miranda Kenneally this week, and it was so much fun! I loved the concept of a female football player who fights to follow her dreams, even when so many people don’t believe in her. And there’s some major swoon going on, too. :)

3. I haven’t started Clockwork Prince by Cassandra Clare yet, even though I’ve had it for a while. I know I’m going to love it, and I know as soon as I’ve finished it, I’m going to want the third book. So I’m saving it.

4. I think I’m going to attempt to make an apple strudel this weekend. With probably hilarious results. We’ll see how it goes.

5. It’s going to be a weekend of family and football, which is the best kind of weekend, I think. Oh, and lots of reading. I can’t wait!

Happy Friday, everyone! Anyone have any fun weekend plans?

  1. I'm halfway through Clockwork Prince and regretting it - I wish I'd waited till the next book was due out, now I'm going to have to wait ages when I'm done with this one :-)

  7. Your weekend sounds fun! Mine will be similar-ish on the reading, and I might watch some football if there's a game Saturday; I'm too lazy to check right now. Oh, and writing. Not necessarily good or bad, but there's a chance I might be able to finish the WIP this weekend.

  8. I have not been able to watch the bachelor this season and it totally bums me out. I love that show:)
    Good luck on the apple strudel and I can't wait to read Clockwork Prince either. No doubt it will be awesome!

  10. Yes! I'm going to watch the snowstorm, and when my kids go to bed, finish reading the Unbecoming of Mara Dyer. Fun!

  11. There are no words for how pathetically hilarious The Bachelor has been this season. I usually can't stand it, but this season is so funny I can't stop.

  12. Sounds like a great weekend! Catching Jordan is very familiar to me...I don't know if I started it or if I just remember seeing the cover or something. Anyway, apple strudel sounds delish!

  14. #3- I like to wait to read books in series so I don't have to wait as long for the next one too.

  17. You know, that's a really good idea about saving a book! I always tear right through them and then I'm waiting FOREVER for the next. If I'd just let them sit and naturally move up my pile, pushing them down once or twice, I might not be sooooo desperate for the next one!
