The Grabarchuk Family And Puzzles!!!


This is what I know about the Grabarchuk Family.  They write amazingly clever and fun puzzles.  They contacted me to try the first of their puzzle books and I have been playing them and reviewing them ever since.   Puzzlebook 102 is the latest puzzlebook from this very talented family.
The puzzles are brightly colored and I absolutely love playing them on my iPAD2 and my Kindle.  Even not in color they are fun to play but I have to say much more fun on a color device.  The Grabarchuk Family recently asked me to try out their new iPAD app.  I have and I love it, too.
These puzzles are perfect for anytime but even more perfect for travel.  Car and airplane travel will pass quickly when you have these puzzles.

As far as age...I personally think they are perfect for kids and grownups and actually a fun thing to do together.  All of the puzzles are challenging and fun and you get a number of chances and you have to work at solving them...great brain exercises.

So I thank the lovely Grabarchuk Family for thinking of me whenever they develop a new puzzlebook!!!
I am a great puzzle tester!!!

I Want This...Simply Put...I Really Do Want This...

I really want this bedspread...I love Anthropologie.
Or this one...again...Anthropologie.
More shades of blue from...Anthropologie.
This time of year has me thinking of a new comfy quilt to snuggle up during cold winter nights...but which one?

A Special Announcement...

Our bathroom is completely painted...

It is blue!!!

I now want to paint everything blue!!!

That would be a tiny sign of my obsessive/compulsive personality!!!


Book news...

I just finished reading Brian Selznick's Wonderstruck...a beautiful beautiful book. I loved it!!!



A corner of my new blue bathroom...which we still can't shower in because we have rescheduled the shower door installation so many times...we are not allowed to call them again until we are sure we are done!!!

Yarn Bombers Hit Brooklyn?


These are Yarn Bombers...I want to be one. 

Can you imagine walking outside and delightfully discovering that someone has put a yarn flower in one of your plants or done something really cool to your bike?

I yearn to be the Yarn Fairy who attaches lovely yarn flowers everywhere...until it rains or snows and my neighbors scream at me...

Happy Saturday Everyone!!!
