A Shocking Discovery and Mail for Voodoo Bride

Yesterday I counted the money in my piggybank and made a shocking discovery: One of the coins was a Danish coin! How did it get in my piggybank? I can't spend Danish money here! I think my owner has been fooled and got this coin as change instead of an Euro coin. If she doesn't pay more attention I'll never get enough money for a fun trip.

Today there was mail for Voodoo Bride!
I won these signed books by Kate Pearce over at the Qwillery.
They're Paranormal Romances set in the Tudor period. Voodoo Bride already read the first two books in the series, but is very happy to now have signed copies of the books and she looks forward to reading the third book.

And the books aren't even all!
Kate also included soap, a small bottle of perfume and bookmarks of which one was hand made.

Thank you Kate and Qwill!

Bookish Mail

I received a really cool book in mail yesterday for review.
I immediately read it and I can tell you there will be a positive review for this book soon on my other blog.

Attack of the Rabid Zombie Creature!

Today I got a scare as suddenly this rabid zombie creature showed up!
Luckily my owner's Other Half caught it and told me the creature would be taken care of.

Sending Mail

Today my owner had to send out some mail, so I went with her to the post office. We send a couple of packages and cards for birthdays and we bought stamps.

Good Good Eat

Funny packaging that I saw at the Amazing Oriental Warehouse.

Sea Monsters, Work and Bob

I got another book in the mail!
I won this Jane Austen mash-up over at vvB32 Reads.

Velvet: Thanks, you always have the coolest giveaways.

Today I helped my owner out at work again.
I don't know how she'd get her work done without me.

In our break I got to chose a snack and I picked piggy candy.

One of our co-workers had a pretty bow thing in her cubicle.
I had to check that out of course.

And I saw this Spongebob binder!
Isn't it cool!?

And now it's time for weekend!
Have a great weekend everyone.

A Special City Walk

A while ago I told you I took pictures for a secret project.

Today I can tell you what that was all about!
I have a special guest over at my review blog today: Sparky Salamander.
Sparky is the sidekick of Anya in the books Embers & Sparks by Laura Bickle, but in his daily life he helps out Laura with her writing among other things.

Sparky is telling all about one of his adventures and there's also a giveaway. In honor of his visit I decided to do a special post on this blog today. I took my well read copy of Embers into town and took pictures of me and the book at some of the places I would love to show Sparky and Laura if they ever visit Groningen.

First of all I'd show them the Martini Tower of course!

And the Martini Church.

And I'd show Sparky the dragon next to the Martini Tower.



Next I'd take Sparky and Laura to the local book store where they have Dark Oracle, a book that Laura also wrote, but under her pen name Alayna Williams.
(I didn't take out my copy of Embers in the store, in case they would try to put it on the shelves to sell it.)

I know Laura loves to play card & board games. so I would also take them to see the local games store.

The A-Church is a must see building as well.

And finally on our way home for some hot chocolate and home made cake: the New Church.


Don't forget to go run over to the review blog to see Sparky's adventures and to enter the giveaway!
