Book Review: “Pinterest For Dummies” by Kelby Carr and Giveaway

Pinterest has, seemingly overnight, become the hottest new social media website. I have been an avid pinner for the past several months and I absolutely love it. I can, and have on many occasions, spent several hours on Pinterest, and whenever I introduce the website to someone, I always warn them of its amazing ability to lure you in and keep you entertained until you realize that there was something you were supposed to be doing.

#PhotoaDayMay: What You’re Reading

I am currently reading the novel Sister by Rosamund Lupton, for the second time. I got this novel on a whim for my Nook, pictured above, after seeing it appear on Oprah’s Summer Reading List last year and reading some absolutely glowing reviews of it.

You can easily see how this …

#PhotoaDayMay: Fun

I admit that this is a bit of a cop out. Taking a picture depicting some fun activity and taking a picture of my computer screen with the band Fun. playing on Spotify are vastly different. However, nothing very fun occurred today, unless you count being so busy that I only had the chance to check comments here while at Best Buy playing with the Mac Books. I was originally there because my fiance’s computer decided to break a few days ago, which he needs for his work, requiring him to build an entirely new system. That has definitely not been fun, but since I was at Best Buy and all, I like to load Woman Tribune on the computers and iPads with the hope that someone will walk by the display …
