The Sunday Post ~sharing news and books


The Sunday Post ~10th Edition
The Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer ~ It's a chance to share news~ A post to recap the past week on your blog, showcase books and things we have received and share news about what is coming up on our blog for the week ahead.
Hello my friends, 
Yesterday we began our travels and are in route to southern New Jersey. We should arrive at my brother-in-law's home late this evening. I am excited to see my family as it's been almost six years! We are all drooling over the food we have missed. So for the next few days we will have a food orgy on tastykakes, soft pretzels, New York style pizza and cheese-steaks. Oh and real meatball parm sandwiches and NJ tomatoes. *wipes drool from chin* I also plan on consuming large amounts of DD and WaWa coffee. On Thursday our ship sets sail out of Northern New Jersey and next week- I will share our itinerary and pics of the ship with you. All of the Sunday posts are scheduled for you. As always, please visit the other participating blogs. I will try to pop in before we board the ship!

I love that you have romances on your vacation reading list! Good luck trying to read. I always *think* I'll read more but usually can't finish one book. I'm determined that my trip next week I'll read more (it's a long multi plane day of flying each way so at least I'll have that!). I can't wait to see your review of THIS IS NOT A TEST!

Have fun!

Hi Kim! I begged 'Wicked Wildfire' to consider, picture-heavy content is no good for dial-up users! But my wrap-up post complimented you. I have few commenters / followers thus far and you were most kind. Enjoy travelling! http://cmriedel.wordpress.com/2012/06/23/wildfire-feedback-in-1/

July 1 is special here and wonderfully hot. May I share my home town with your readers? There are famous facts I'd love everyone's reactions to. Happy Canada Day! http://cmriedel.wordpress.com/2012/06/27/my-home-and-native-land/
