Yes Please by Amy Poehler - Amy's book is delightful, just like she is. It's a combination memoir / positive life advice / funny story book that's just about the heaviest book I've read in a long time. By heavy I mean it weighs more than most books its size. This must be because it's composed of heavy paper, and I must say that the pages are lovely and smooth to the touch with a bit of shine that helps the words jump off the page. Amy is a brilliant kind hearted sweet talented funny woman. She includes some pictures, but I would want more pictures, so for that reason I give Yes Please an A rather than an A+. Yes Please I'll read that book, and thank you Amy, for writing it!Empire - Best network nighttime soap opera ever. It combines an excellent story line about a wealthy family, amazing actors, great music and fabulous fashion. It's the modern day Dynasty and it works. I can't wait for it to start up again. How is Lucious Lyon going to get out of his current jam? Will Cookie prevail? What about their boys? Will Empire survive?
Her Heart On Her Sleeve: I live in a suburb north of Chicago, and I read, bead, make jewelry, sew, watch TV and movies, crochet, craft, decorate, go to house and garage sales, walk and go on beach walks, listen to music, take pictures, cook and bake, read, and write about all of it on herheartonhersleeve. I have a companion blog called Jewlery by Dianne Sophia at diannesophia.blogspot.com where I write exclusively about my jewelry.
Jewelry By Dianne Sophia: I have been collecting vintage jewelry since I was a girl growing up in Detroit, and have been designing and making jewelry for 15 years. I love to work with pearls and crystals, semi-precious stones, Sterling Silver and Gold, along with vintage beads and materials. I delight in combining shape, pattern and color in new ways. I'm inspired and influenced by my travels and experiences as a reader, writer, photographer and student of life. My blog herheartonhersleeve.blogspot.com chronicles my life in art and popular culture.
