Current book

I am also reading a novel by one of my favorite author's - Margaret Atwood - Oryx and Crake by Margaret Atwood...this is one funky novel, almost apocalyptic in its tone, weary fatalism and futuristic mood to it. I'm not all the way finished with it yet, but am enjoying the stretching...I'm not a big sci fi fan (or futuristic or whatever this genre might be) but Atwood is masterful in her storyweaving. I'll try to post my own review of it later.

All my favorite things -- my kids, family, books, music and writing. There, that's my life in a nutshell. If, as Atwood predicts, the future ends here rather soon, I can rebuild my life with these things.

Chocolate cake, like the kind my daughter makes, would also be nice to have.
