Cooking
Found over at Spiceblog, another book meme. But this one is free of cookbooks!
1) Total number of books I've owned:
Combined? Thousands. I'm not kidding. Since my 'merger' with Matt, books over-run the place.
2) The last book I bought:
Silverfin. The Complete Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, Vol. 1. And Twilight of Empire: Responses to Occupation. (all purchased at the same time)

Nine Coaches Waiting, Champlain Summer, The Lord of the Rings...the trilogy, which brings my total to five.

- Fritz's Bread
When asked 'what fictional characters would you most like to dine with', I actually have an answer. I'm terrible at making lists of favorites: people, songs, movies, whatever. But this one...I can do this. If someone were to wave their magic...
- How Romantic!
Saturday was 'date night', and Matt and I had dinner, followed by a night at the theater (Arsenic & Old Lace). But we had a big block of time before the show started, so we headed to one of our favorite places...Edward McKay's Used Books...
