Two Big, Juicy Morsels for Y'all to Chew On.

My favorite dessert in the world is tiramisu. I rarely have the opportunity to enjoy this luscious treat, so when it does come across my plate I refuse to share even a bite. Merely asking for a taste is grounds for a break-up, y'all. So please...don't ask. This evening, though, I have two bits of news so simply delicious that I can't keep them to myself. Willingly and lovingly I offer y'all some information fully equivalent to the divinity that is tiramisu.

1. There's a new must-read in the world o' blogs. Another one, you ask? Yes! And this one is super worthy, because it will be filled with fabulous posts by women just like you! (My two male readers--Hey Greg and Dad--y'all can check it out, too.) Have you a hankering to learn the daily panderings of Naked Barbie? Looking for some new Crackliture to devour in a frothy bubble bath or while curled up 'neath your covers at night? It's all here! Just head yourselves on over to The Secret is in the Sauce and check out the new kid on the blogging block. You won't be disappointed, I promise. Have I ever steered y'all wrong?


2. Entertainment Weekly has an exclusive preview of Stephenie Meyer's Breaking Dawn!!!!!!!! Sneak a peak at the opening bits of Chapter 1 here and get ready for the official release of the novel on August 2, 2008. If you are not familiar with the genius that is Stephenie Meyer, kneel now and ask God for forgiveness. He is faithful and just, folks. Once you've confessed and been made right, get thee to a library, bookstore, Amazon.com, WHEREVER, and begin the series now, starting with Twilight...next comes New Moon, with Eclipse being the third installment. Then you will be as rabid a fan as a certain gal nicknamed Lula, and we can be even bigger BFFs. Also, check out Mrs. Meyer's website. It's a place I frequent often, just so y'all know.

*Darn Blogger--apparently the link to the EW site is not working, so the easiest solution I can come up with is to go directly to Stephenie Meyer's site (the link is above) and get to it from there. Sorry for the confusion. While I'm a total nerd, my status doesn't include matters of a technical nature.

I got myself signed up with SITS...and now I need to read about the new book. I had not seen the cover before. And my brain is still in LOST gear...so I am immediately thinking...what do those chess pieces mean? Who's the pawn? And the queen? (Is that a queen? I never learned to play :-)...

Edward might be my boyfriend if he wasn't Bella's! I am so waiting for the new book and drooling and excited because I can buy it for my job and read it for free! The only perk of being a librarian, I think!

Here by way of the SITS site...

I went and got my special edition Eclipse copy this Saturday and already put my "Team Edward" t-shirt transfer on a t-shirt. LOL! The first chapter of Breaking Dawn is REALLY GOOD! I was figuring it would be like 3 or 4 pages but it was a good sized chapter!

Are you a member of TwilightMoms? Run quickly there if you aren't already! http://www.twilightmoms.com The forums are fun!

From the bloggy gremlin that likes to leave comments ;)

Lula!! Aghhh!!! Craziness - I was at Costco on Sunday and they had Twilight and New Moon on sale in paperback for $6.82 each. I bought both of them because, well, hello Vampires!! I think I read every Anne Rice novel ever put out in the span of a month, and I am a huge fan of Harry Potter, and somehow this seems like a nice cross between HP and IWTV.

Oh, and checkin' out the new blog you recommended - as if I needed another to follow :)

Another Twilight lover! Someone was kind enough to put the entire first chapter on the intarwebz for those of us who don't want two Eclipse books hanging around. It's got a bunch more than the EW link did.

Check it out!
