Happy Sunday, all! This weekend has been a good one so far. I found myself in a cheesecake mood earlier this week, so my husband and I ventured up to a cheesecake place in Maryland yesterday. They have little bite size cheesecakes that are perfect if you aren’t in the mood for a full slice but want a few bites of creamy goodness. I bought a few, and they they’re happily ensconced in my freezer for when I’m in the mood!
Today’s going to be a working day. I worked very hard on my thesis this week and have made excellent progress, though there’s still a ton to be done. Sometimes I feel like it will never be finished, but if I step back and think about it for a minute, I realize I have even more completed than I’d originally hoped by this point. With just one more week until BEA, I’m going to be cramming a lot of work into the next week.
On the books front, I’ve been reading Allison Winn Scotch’s The One That I Want for a few days now. It should have been a one sitting book, but I’m finding so little time to read that it’s difficult! I’m really enjoying it, though, and could talk for hours about the main character – I’m sure I’ll expound on her in my review. I also posted about the Richmond Book & Author Dinner, asked for some cookbook suggestions, and shared a list of Pakistani authors, composed by Shaila Abdullah.

Wow--you have a lot more self control than I do! Cheesecake would never even make it to my freezer.
Seriously, cheesecake in the freezer? Not in my house! :-)
Sounds like you've had a good week; good luck with the writing!
These books look so good, and now you have me in the mood for dessert...LOL
You really reviewed some great books this week! I am always amazed at how much reading you do, and at the same time working on your thesis!
Mmmmm...that cheesecake really sounds good. I think I have some in the freezer.
I know I would never get this book, but I know my brother would adore it. Thanks for the great interview!
I can't wait to finally meet you live and in person!
Cheesecake is now stuck in my head; I may have to make one tomorrow. ;) The thesis will get done, I promise. Suckers are such a pita!
I, too, love cheesecake and have found a couple of really good recipes for a key lime version and a cafe mocha version that I really like. I might have to make one soon! I hope that you get some really solid work on your thesis this week and also get some great reading time as well!
