Between the covers:

--Number of pages: 167

Down the hatch:

--Food: one slice of pizza, 3 mozzarella sticks, 2 pieces of chocolate

Yay! You're back! Pet & little boy care seem to be awfully distracting, but you're doing SO GREAT with your reading!!!

OMG, I miss mozzarella stick so much. I'm going to try a gluten free version with some chickpea flour I got at the Indian grocery store verrrry soon!

Dang, babe. You've read a lot of pages! If I could stay awake I might be more productive...and if Knife of Never Letting Go didn't shake my mental foundation.
See you in the library soon, I hope.

You're doing great! I'm getting hungry reading about what people are eating. Coffee cake sounds good. We have no chocolate in the house! How did this happen? Oh, yeah, hubby is on a diet. Gonna go get some honey-nut cheerios.
Happy reading!

Way to hang in there! Halfway through - keep it up!

Amanda said...

Aw, sorry you're getting tired! Hugs to you!

Jean said...

With a Book
Oh, wait, we're not really playing Clue, are we?

Lexi said...

Good grief. I'm embarrassed by your stats (and possibly by my spelling of embarrassed). Keep up the great work!

Kailana said...

Wow you are doing a really great job Debi! See, when you have time you are a fast reader!

Maree said...

Wow, great going! I love ice-cold Coke. Nothing better :D

Unknown said...

Aaaand now I want mozzarella sticks! Cheering is so dangerous when readers list what their eating! I just start getting hungry!!!

Looks like you're doing great! Keep it up!
