While there, I pulled up a past blog post on my phone and browsed through the comments section where you guys mentioned the most recent amazing books you’ve read.
Using your advice as my guide, I selected this lil’ baby:
I have a little test when it comes to picking out books. I read the first page. If I want to keep reading and feel like the writer has a great voice, I decide it’s a keeper. Of course this is not a foolproof method, but it’s a random little thing I always do when picking out reading material.
The Help passed the test and will be making the journey to Europe with me.
Dinner
After browsing around Barnes & Noble for a bit (I could easily spend hours there), I came home ready for dinner! Ryan had plans to meet up with a buddy at Panera tonight, so I was all on my own.
I wanted something tasty and easy and breakfast for dinner matches both of those requirements.
Dippy eggs + veggie bacon +toasted English muffin
Don’t mind if I do!
Strawberry banana Greek yogurt and a billion Swedish Fish were also consumed.
P.S. The Fashion page was updated for the third time this evening. I’m on a roll, baby!
P.P.S. I almost titled this blog post “The Little Blog Post That Could” because my computer decided to crap the bed and stop working a billion times as I was typing it up. After breaking my laptop over my knee and letting Sadie pee on it while I located some lighter fluid to subsequently set it on fire, I used Ryan’s computer to finally get this post up. Phew! The trials and tribulations of blogging…

I also need to read that book. It’s been on my list for awhile, but I started the Outlander series. May have been a mistake cause it’s taking me too long to finish them all!
Heather (Heather's Dish) says
i’ve been wanting to read that book for a while, but on our budget buying books is getting pricey! i’ve thought about getting a kindle, even though i hate the thought of not buying an actual book, but can’t decide which route to go with. kind of random, but all that to say i can’t wait to hear what you think about The Help!

Yes, The Help is SOOOOO good! Hope you enjoy it! I finished it in a matter of days.
Erin says
I was unsure at first, but The Help is a great book. It was more intriguing to me because they filmed scenes near our church, in our neighborhood (Belhaven) and I have a friend who is an extra in the movie!
Megan H says
I loved that book and cried when I finished it because I got so connected with the characters! That’s a book that I will for sure read again in years to come! Enjoy.

You’ll love The Help — but it goes fast, so I think you’ll need a few more options for your long flights!
I am also having computer problems, so thanks for the visual of taking your frustrations out on yours. One day I will do the same!
Mila @ loftyappetite says
The Help is a fantastic choice!! You will not regret it! The characters are so great they will be perfect companions for the travel days ahead. Make sure you let us know when you are done if you enjoyed it!

The Help?! Lovelovelove it. Hopefully it lasts you a while. I managed to read it slowly enough to keep my entire vacation.
I’ve been stalking all over your blog, I really enjoy it.
