Even if you can't control the world around you, you are still the master of your own soul.
        
    
 
    
    
	
        
        
    Fifty Shades - late to the party
 
	The Book Club I joined read this book prior to my joining.  I am now going to the movie premier with them so I thought I better read it to be up-to-speed. 
 
 
	I cannot believe how obsessed I am with this series.  I read the first one in 2 days. 
 
 
	The writing is not great and the author uses some really stupid phrasing.  It's unbelievable that a woman who has finished college has never experienced an orgasm. 
 
 
	But somehow, despite all these negatives, I have been sucked into caring about these characters.  I'm embarrassed.  But I can't put them down.  I am halfway through the second book and I told my SO that I plan to read all evening. 
 
 
	Aside from being ignored through this reading marathon, he is quite amused by the sighing and squirming I am evidently doing while reading.  
 
 
 
	I'm a 54 year old grandmother - how did I let these books get to me????

My favorite October Treat
 
	Candy corn mixed with cocktail peanuts - it is a sweet, salty, wonderful treat! 
 
 
	I only eat it during October so it stays special.
