(almost) wordless wednesday...the snow white edition...

I called this almost wordless wednesday
because
there has to be some words
to explain where these came from..

a friend recently told me he was
going through some items to
donate/sell
and sent me a photo of
THE FULL SET OF SNOW WHITE AND 7 DWARVES.

(please note the all caps…
that is not a mistake…
that is how I still feel about this…
LIKE I WON THE TOY LOTTERY!)

I felt incredibly lucky that he passed these along to me.
They will be well taken care of…as long as they don’t mind
sharing the spotlight with the smurfs and couple robots…
:)

(also…there were more surprises…
but I’ll save those for another day…)

whatcha readin'? {2017::book 9 - goal 24}

i picked this up on a whim...
i really knew nothing about it.
but the title was interesting
and i'm always drawn in by anything
that might be reminiscent of fairy tales
which this book was
in a very, very loose sense.

i enjoyed her writing
and the little twists she wove in
along the way.
i have to admit there were times that
i felt a little confused
or lost...
and found it difficult
to pick up the thread of the story again
but sometimes,
i think that might be my own fault
for reading a book
in dribs and drabs
of time
instead of rich big open blocks
of focused time.

i did enjoy this though and would definitely
give her other books a try though.
