Fang (Post I)
I am SO exited for the newest book in the Maximum Ride Series: Fang. He's Max's soul-mate, best friend, right-hand-man, the one who helps her lead the flock. But now, Dylan has come and he was created to be Max's soul-mate and he thinks he is. But he's not. And a message has come that Fang will be the first one to die. So, Max is juggling all this and the end of the world is coming-- she's supposed to save the world, by the way.
I am being forced to wait 15 more days. How insane is that?
Oh, sorry-- did I forget to mention that Max, Fang, Iggy, Nudge, the Gasman, Angel and now Dylan are all 98% human and 2% bird? Yeah, and they've got wings. Yep. That's right. Oh, and this series is written by James Patterson. For a link to Max-Dan-Wiz (the Maximum Ride homepage), go to my Links to Follow on the left.

Amelia Earhart Quotes
~"The most effective way to do it, is to do it."
~"Never interrupt someone doing something you said couldn't be done."
~"No kind action ever stops with itself. One kind action leads to another. Good example is followed. A single act of kindness throws out roots in all directions, and the roots spring up and make new trees. The greatest work that kindness does to others is that it makes them kind themselves."
~"Never do things others can do and will do, if there are things others cannot do or will not do."
~"Anticipation, I suppose, sometimes exceeds realization."
~"Flying may not be all plain sailing, but the fun of it is worth the price."
~"...decide...whether or not the goal is worth the risks involved. If it is, stop worrying..."

Perfect Cauliflower
Even if you HATE cauliflower (like moi) you will love, love, love this! It is one of the only ways to get me to eat my vegetables (other than putting brown sugar on my carrots) and if that's not a miracle, I don't know what is.
"Even if you hate it; even if you detest it; even if you loathe and abhor cauliflower... You're going to love it after this...
You must, must, must try this recipe!
Ingredients:
One head cauliflower
Olive oil
Kosher salt
Directions:
1) Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2) Cut cauliflower in florets, then cut each floret in
half so each one has a flat side.
3) Rinse thoroughly.
4) Spread one layer deepon a lined baking sheet.
5) Drizzle with olive oil.
6) Sprinkle with kosher salt.
7) Roast for 20 min.
They will come out savory and browned and crunchy and amazing!" Quoted almost exactly from my mom's blog... so thanks mom!
