The Hunt for letter C proves to difficult.....

I'm thinking that this hunt for Letter C in the Susan Grafton series, see previous post, is to hard.........Would the blog followers be mad if i said i would start collecting them out of order?
please advise, i wouldn't want the blog followers to think i cheated !

Does the world need another mineral makeup ?

The answer yes!
Go buy Almay's wake-up mineral makeup right now !
First off , remember when you were a kid and some novelty toys were more about texture than actual fun. Like silly putty,and that weird jelly that was all about the squeakiness.....well this makeup is like that.

Its a powder, looks like a powder, goes on the brush like a powder, touches your face and damn if it isn't liquid !
It is the coolest thing !

They have a brush tucked neatly into the top that is not only cool looking, it is fully functional ! This is a highly and well engineered product launch !
Using the Almay brush makes the product go on with a bit more precision, its neater,and you waste less.

Seriously i didn't know anything about the product when i popped into beloved CVS yesterday morning but I know everything i need to know now !
Go get some , for under 10.00 you get a very nice look,and have fun doing it !
If that isn't what make up is about then what is !

Hunt for the letter C

You know how it is , the minute you say I've noticed this ,,,damn if that won't break the pattern.

It seemed like a fairly cute and fast idea based on how many Sue Grafton books I'd seen in the " thrifts", until i posted it that is and then apparently everyone ran out and scooped them up. Three thrift stores into it , Arlene, friend and doyenne of thrift stores, finally spotted a small ( i think they call them trade paperbacks)version of letter B ! I didn't make it a rule to rule out those cheesy rack paperback versions,only because i didn't even think she was published in that format, i really hate that size, but since i was in no position to choose to just get letter b , I'm allowing it in the rules !

We did a lovely job of tidying and organizing several shelves over there at the Glendale Goodwill and although letters much further down were there, no C, was present, so the hunt continues.

Well dear readers, you can expect this one to go on for a while, Ms Grafton is on letter U and at this speed she will be well through any numerical series before i complete this challenge ! If it continues this slow, i may have to go upstairs and route through the stacks of books i have at home and possibly allow any i have into said challenge !

Will keep you updated, I am pleased to say that i did beat my previous 81 books read in 2009 ( audio and in print )so the 2011 number to beat is now 83 ! What am i doing on the laptop , i better get in the car and start that audio !

Here is to an amazing 2011 for all of us, and letter C , I'm looking for you baby !
