And of course, I have been a reading machine this summer. I think the following two books have been the best books I have read all summer - and there have been a lot. I might even put them in my top ten best books ever.

Because Sharing is Caring
Perhaps you are sitting there wondering what is currently on my Kindle and my iPod (ha!). Well, you're in luck, because I am sharing them. Earlier this week, I downloaded the new Airborne Toxic Event album, All at Once. I loved their last album and listened to it over and over during my first trimester of pregnancy. When I listen to it now, I always think of walking, walking, walking around the neighborhood, before I was put on bedrest and wondering what life would be like with twins. Their new album is every bit as good as the last one.

State of Wonder by Ann Patchett was a bizarre story that takes place in the jungles of Brazil. I just couldn't put it down. Here's the NYTimes book review write-up.
I was so sad to finish City of Thieves by David Benioff. This is an amazing story and made me want to learn more about what happened during Russia during World War II. But it didn't feel like 'work' reading it. It was just a great story. Here's the review of this one.

Things I Love Lately
Just a note to talk about some of the things I have been enjoying lately. You know, to influence this HUGE audience I have.
My BlenTec blender. Yes, it is pricey, but it is AWESOME! This thing can blend anything. We have been blending apples, carrots, celery, making muffin batter, juices, anything. We all have a green smoothie every day with lots of spinach or kale in it, along with fruit. This thing blends it up so well you can't taste the greens.
Some good books lately: Cutting for Stone and The Imperfectionists. Both read on my Kindle, which I am also obsessed with. I would recommend these two books to just about anyone.
The new Panic at the Disco album: Vices & Virtues. Good for working out.
The Moosewood cookbook - full of vegetarian and low fat recipes, that are delicious. We have been eating most of our meals out of this cookbook over the past few weeks and they are almost all good.
