Sacred Accessories

So, there's this website that's e-mailed me a couple times and I finally took a chance and went to check them out. I must say, they're pretty cool! The website is Sacred Accessories. They have some awesome items. Some of my favorite items include:

Sterling Silver Circle Dangle Earrings

Owl Charm Necklace by Cecilia Gonzales

Gold Necklace With Silver Fire Ohm

Pink Prayer Scarf by Raj Imports

A lot of the items are yellow gold (which doesn't look all that great on me) but they're still super cute. So, if you like yellow gold jewelry, you might want to check it out! Right now, a lot of things are on sale!

Also, by using the code: SHIPFREE you can get free shipping!

Ciao!

Review of CURTAIN by Agatha Christie

So in trying to live up with my blog address (bookwormbritt.blogspot) I'm going to attempt my first book review!

I read Curtain by Agatha Christie. I haven't read a lot of Christie and why I came back to it with this one (the last in the Hercule Poirot "series")...it's all because someone else in the blogging world read it and I felt so inclined. LOL!

I am not the HUGEST fan of Poirot. I don't like having parts of the story that I can't read because it's in another language. This story wasn't too bad but it did still irk me. The story itself was good, totally had me guessing the whole way through.

I'm looking forward to getting back into Christie's books...slowly yet surely.

My rating: 4/5

(Any book bloggers who read my blog...PLEASE give me opinions/suggestions for reviewing. Thanks!)

Ciao!

Hurting

My heart hurts.

I had to break up with my boyfriend (Nick). It was hard but he didn't share my faith and I need someone in my future that does share my faith.

I know it was the right thing but that doesn't make it hurt any less.

What Would You Like to See?

Hello my dear readers!

So I'm looking for your suggestions.

There's 2 things I'd like from you. :-)

1) If you read this blog--please leave a comment...even if it's just a "Hi". I would really like to know how many people ACTUALLY read my blog.

2) What would YOU, my reader, like to see (more of) on my blog. I'm contemplating reviewing books...even thought I'd be pretty bad at it because I'm super nice and I love/like most books I read. And I have a hard time writing anything mean even if there was something I didn't really like. LOL! But I've posted "Sunday Style" posts before but stopped because I just don't know if that was all that interesting to y'all.

So I'd love to hear your suggestions!

Can YOU Help Me?

With this new job I'm thinking about looking into getting a cute lunch tote (preferably not too pricey) to carry lunch in. We have a few in our house but they're not very girly and a few are kinda old and slightly stained.

I'm thinking about something that can be monogrammed (preferably with a choice other than just my initials**). It needs to zip close in some way. What I need help with is finding them. I don't have a clue where to look! LOL

Oh, and I'd also like it to be insulated. To keep things cool. :-)

Thanks for any suggestions. I appreciate the help!

Ciao!

**My first & last initials are BS so monograms always end up looking bad--BSN (first/last/middle). I just don't like it! I can't initial anything without my middle initial or people always say something. So I prefer monograms that are either just one initial or my name.
