I collected Happy Hollister books and Bobbsey Twin books and got them for birthdays, etc. I still have them and just can't give them to the Goodwill or a book sale. My kids will have to figure that one out someday. HA!. And The Secret Garden. How I loved/love that book. The descriptions of the crocus coming up out of the earth and the birds singing in that enclosed sanctuary...books can stay with you for such a very long time.<br /><br />Debbie Z.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271225.post-54916909214348513032014-03-14T00:34:03.385-05:002014-03-14T00:34:03.385-05:00Not watching, but was able to watch Candice last s...Not watching, but was able to watch Candice last season quite a bit and she was/is amazing!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08274481412344071315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271225.post-22992158864143600912014-03-14T00:32:25.414-05:002014-03-14T00:32:25.414-05:00Me three!Me three!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08274481412344071315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271225.post-49071766543672390832014-03-13T20:00:02.138-05:002014-03-13T20:00:02.138-05:00Thank you Donna for keeping me informed about Idol...Thank you Donna for keeping me informed about Idol and the others.

Candice glover is better than anybody this season, or ever.

Thanks to yesterday's post, I've added to my "to read" list and I haven't been able to stop thinking about books that I've loved -- especially from my childhood. I was fondly remembering the Trixie Belden series (love!), The Happy Hollisters, The Tuckers, The Bobbsey Twins, Five Little Peppers and How They Grew, Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm, Anne of Green Gables, The Secret Garden, etc., etc., etc. Thank you for prompting that trip down memory lane!!! xoxo<br /><br />Mary ZAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6271225.post-80350823579145511582014-03-13T15:00:55.673-05:002014-03-13T15:00:55.673-05:00There were plenty of books I forgot about yesterda...There were plenty of books I forgot about yesterday and saw them all listed in the comments when I went back. But I didn't see The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society and wanted to mention it. I've also read Redeeming Love five times and counting. ;) You have an autographed copy of Christy!?!

Yes, I know Carrie beat Bo that year. ;) The Voice? I love Alaska and Madi along with Dawn and Hawkes. It's all about the duos. Glad you'll be warming up. We're warmer, but the March winds are wild and chilly right now.

Oh. My. Goodness. Awesome voice, and your Meat Loaf observation is spot on. Sending him "in it to win it" thoughts.<br /><br />Shared your post from a few weeks ago with the Misses -- the one about Katie's hair and the radio comment. They were appalled but unsurprised by the host's remarks and saddened that he had deflated Katie's enthusiasm for short crops. My family of short-haired gals wants to remind your daughter that she'd be gorgeous and feminine with ANY or even NO hair. Her beauty is in her spirit. Tell her: Don't let a foolish stranger's remark change what she knows to be true; that is, when one loves as she does and is loved as she is, one is beautiful inside and out.Mental multivitaminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03399560628858130962noreply@blogger.com
