The Arrival of the Random Penguin

Today we received a special visitor!
We were notified in advance so I took care that a welcome committee was assembled.

The Random Penguin arrived for a visit to Groningen while he's on his World Tour!

The Random Penguin is Kerry Schafer's trusted sidekick and he's famous for his Random pictures of him at unexpected places.

I made sure to have the penguins who live here present when Random Penguin arrived so he would feel right at home.

Random Penguin also brought these beautiful bookmarks of Kerry's book Between with him, so we can distribute them here and tempt people into buying Between.

For now Random Penguin settled down in a nice spot to rest from his long journey to Groningen, but he'll be touring Groningen and pose for some pictures the next few days.


If you want to know more about Kerry's special bond with penguins and about her upcoming book Between, you can read her guest post about penguins here

Roses and Wine

We got these lovely roses from our best friends this Friday.

And I got to drink Glühwein.
That's a spicy wine that you drink hot. It was very tasty!

Happy Pig and Books

My owner's OtherHalf was playing Borderlands 2 yesterday and look what I spotted in the game!

Today there was mail for Voodoo Bride.
I won these books for her at Preternatura.

Thanks Suzanne!

A Small Mail Update

A small update on cool mail I received just before Christmas.


I received a signed copy of Full Blooded by Amanda Carlson. I won it in a giveaway she held together with her street team.



This really cool piggy Christmas card I got from Bob! He told me the snow on the card is yellowish because some bears got there first. Hmmm....

Thanks Bob!

Merry Christmas

I hope everyone had a great Christmas!
Here midnight is almost upon us and we had a great day.
There was a Christmas Bundt cake and we played games and watched movies.
