Love Day Friday

I think it's time for a little Friday love-fest.

Today I'm sharing the love for:
  • Movie: The Tale of Despereaux. I watched it with Child the day she was sick, and we both adored it. Great story, great flick. My first exposure to Kate DiCamillo! I don't think it'll be the last for either of us.
  • Book: SKINNED, by Robin Wasserman. Great concept, plot, voice, complex characters. And look, I can get the sequel, too! This is the bonus for being slow on reading.
  • My WIP. I know, I can't actually *share* it. But SALVAGED is finally skipping forward again after a facelift of the first 50 pages, and I like where it's going!
  • Music: This is an oldie, but The Psychedelic Furs. Hubby and I went to Seattle on Monday to see them live (probably my 4th time (?) and hubby's in the tens), and LOVED them. As always.
  • Food: Cupcakes. Particularly this one. (hee hee) And these. YUM.
Please join in!! What are you loving today? Post in the comments!

  1. Today I am loving the quiet! Son#3 started kindergarten on Wednesday, but I had to work. So today is my first real day of peace and quiet!

    I'm loving fall.

    Yesterday I fell in love with pumpkin spice lattes.

  4. I love that after a rash of meh books, I've had two good reads: Unseen by Alexandre Sokoloff and Voracious by Alice Henderson.

    I love that it's Saturday and I'm lounging about in my pyjamas, while my son and his friend are immersed in their video game -- we can do what we want today, yay!

    I love that I'm going through the 3rd-ish draft of my novel making planning notes for its final edit!

    Finally, I love Sheldon from Big Bang Theory, because he is just _awesome_.

    This was a very fun! Thanks for posting.

    Ooooh, I'll have to check into SKINNED. I've heard good things about it, but if Sparkle-Suze thinks it's awesome, then it MUST BE. :D

    Glad everyone's starting to feel better, bb! And sooooo jealous about Psych Furs!! Did they play LOVE MY WAY?? No wait, don't tell me...I'll just ENVY you more. ;)

  7. You have to read DiCamillo's Edward Tulane... you and Child will love sharing it together.

    I am loving that it is the weekend... for another 10 hours at least.
