My Review of "I Draw on Cats"

A.R. Coffelt's I Draw on Cats: A Connect-the-Dots Activity Book is a fun, creative menagerie of beautiful cat pictures, with connect-the-dot scenes that turn these ordinary cats into extraordinary feline super heroes, doctors and knights.

This book will be a hit with the kids -- who will love the cat pictures -- and adults -- who will find hours of joy in connect-the-dots fun.

My Review of "Come as You Aren't"

Come as You Aren't: A Role-Playing Game for Adventurous Couples is a simple role-playing kit for couples who want to explore and experiment in ways to seduce one another that they simply wouldn't have imagined otherwise. The set is meant to offer one partner who draws a Who, a What, and a Where card at random and places them in an envelope for the other partner. From there, it's up to them to enact the scenarios as they see fit. The instructions are printed on the back cover of the box and the deck comes with a few blank cards for couples to customize. This is a fun little gift for couples -- and just in time for the holidays. I received a free copy of this game from the Blogging for Books review program in exchange for my honest review here.

My Review of "Roadfood"

Jane & Michael Stern's Roadfood gives us another (this is the 10th edition!) gastro road trip across the US. Roadfood is like a road map through backroads and interstates for some of the best food in each state and region in the US. Roadfood celebrates venues most travelers would never venture near, let alone enter. Most of the state-by-state listed restaurants are, however, for dining on the cheap. Like Litton's in Knoville, TN -- which really does have amazing burgers. While one could hardly map a road trip by the Sterns' restaurant finds -- some cities, like Chicago, are overrepresented, while the rest of Illinois is all but ignored -- this fun and fanciful volume is pure pleasure.

A review of "Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World"

Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World: Finding Intimacy with God in the Busyness of Life is a book to which I wish I'd been introduced years ago. In it, Joanna Weaver offers challenging and helpful advice for drawing me -- and women like me -- back to the core of those things that really matter in life. My husband has been a pastor for 17 years. I work with developmentally challenged adults in a residential setting. And when we married (just a year ago), I never realized all the ways in which our busy lives would impact our relationship and, more importantly, our spiritual lives. We all have different lives with different choices, pressures, situations, challenges and opportunities. But most of us -- or, maybe just me! -- feel overwhelmed by those choices and pressures, the situations and challenges. This is the book I needed to expose how so much of all that is my own doing. Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World is based on an exc...
