today is all about books!


I heard about a Penguin/Random House book sale late last night and whizzed across the other side of town today. I came home with a HUGE pile - all $2-3 each! I've saved hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of dollars. My future classroom might possibly be better than the school library.....

I've bought a ton of books this year. Uni has been really good for me to save money otherwise (well other than the $18,000 2 of us have spent on fess this year. I am so grateful for the 20 year old who pays his own fees from his job and who will come out totally debt free at the end of next year !)




 A batch of peanut brownies made last night.
 There must be little food in the house as one teen bought me his list... I go through weeks of doing zero food shopping - luckily the husband shops!
 More books bought last weekend....
 And the piles bought 5 weeks ago in Melbourne and Hobart in Australia....


I love my books! I'm so excited about sharing my love of reading with children next year!
