Tea and a Read and Some Other Things! - March Edition

Hi everyone!:)

I am here with my monthly "Tea and Whatever Else I Do While I Drink Said Tea"! LOL! This month I am reading!:)

What I'm Drinking:

Trader Joe's Blackberry Fruit Infusion Tea! It's so good and for some reason the smell reminds me of fruit filled donuts!;D It's one of my new favorite teas!:)

What I'm Reading:

C.S. Lewis' The Screwtape Letters. I've been wanting to read this book for forever, then I asked my mom if we had it and she got it for me from one of our many, many bookshelves!;)

This book is the combined letters of a demon named Screwtape to his nephew, Wormwood. It's a Christian book. The letters are on multiple different subjects teaching Wormwood how to deceive Christians and it's very eye opening. You sort of read it in vice versa, where he is teaching his nephew the tricks of tricking humans, so you learn their ways and how to be careful not to be deceived. I would say that the book is for teens and adults since some subjects are for adults.

I've found some really good quotes and have written some down such as the following: 

 

I love those!:) The Enemy is Jesus/God since the letters are from a demon.;)

That finishes up the Tea and a Read!:)

Now onto other news!

I got a new Disney Infinity Figure, actually two! Obi-Wan Kenobi and Boba Fett!:D

This is Obi-Wan!;) 

 

And then here are just two random pictures that I took!;)

I hope you enjoyed the post!:D What have you been reading lately? I'd love to know!:)

Sometimes the Weather Does Pretty Amazing Things...And That is When I Hermit...

Hi everyone!

IF I HAVEN'T TOLD YOU YET, IT IS GETTING COLDER WHERE I LIVE! YAYYYY!

Last week it was especially cold and rainy, which is PERFECT hermitting weather. So that's exactly what I did...after I took pictures...;)

I had gone out into my backyard and the sunset was truly beautiful, I had to take some pictures to at least try to remember it's gorgeousness. It didn't work, but I still think the pictures aren't half bad.;) 

I could just see the storm clouds growing, the different dark shades all blending together was breathtaking.:) 

I saw a chance to make a "creative" attempt at photography.;) 

*sigh*

My body doesn't know what to do with my gangly limbs. My fingers look so awkward.XD 

The sky opened and it looked so beautiful!:) 

 

Now, it was beginning to rain, so I had to set up a hermit nest right at a window. It was glorious feeling the cold wind bursting through the window and writing my little heart out.:)

This is my nest. I had two or more blankets, maybe four or five pillows, and I loved it. I had a fan blowing on me just for that extra cold.XD 

That night was so fun. I wrote in the cold and dark (I got upset when someone turned on a light) and I soaked it all in.;P

OOOOH!!!! AND GUESS WHAT? I finished the first draft of Glazed! That means that once I edit it, I can post it!:D AAAAND....I GET TO START WRITING ANOTHER PROJECT!

I kept telling myself that I couldn't start another story until I finished one of the three I had started. Hehehe....;)

I have two story ideas that are really begging to be let out. I am leaning more to the dystopian one in my head, but the other one is about birds with different abilities/powers. I have more of a general plot with the dystopian story though, so I will probably end up doing that one before the bird one.;)

 

I hope you enjoyed this post!:)

What's in my Bag?

Hi everyone! Sorry I haven't been posting recently, I didn't really know what to post, but now I have some ideas.;)

 

One of my ideas is to show you all what I keep in my purse.:) I've heard that you can learn a lot by what a girl has in her purse, so learn away!;P

This is what is currently in my purse-

o my glasses, in case my eyes freak out ;) o

o pencils o

This is my bag. It's really big, which I am thankful for because I need it to be large for my sketchbook!:)

And another little personal doodad, my Sherlock Holmes key chain! One of my habits is to spin the inside circle around while I walk.;)

I took this picture when I went out for a hike at sunset! I really liked this one, because the sun looks like one, single bokeh.;)
