Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens…
Favorite things posts make me feel better… So I’m doing a favorite things post.
FAVORITE TOY
My fisheye lens.
This picture isn’t the best, but it shows another one of my favorite things- the area I live in.
This is a view of one of the local vineyards over looking the West Grand Traverse Bay.
Oh, and it’s a horizon line!
FAVORITE AUTHOR
She writes three of my favorite series
Southern Vampire Series/Sookie Stackhouse Series
and
I was going to choose one book, but why, when so many of my favorites come from one author!
FAVORITE SONG
It’s a great song and it makes me think of my honey… Cause he’s MY BEST THING!
FAVORITE PODCAST
The Stuff You Missed in History Class
Katie and Sarah have a way of making everything sound interesting to me!
I usually listen to them on my drive to work at three in the morning, it makes the early morning feel less lonely.
FAVORITE BLOG
Joe McNally Photography
Not only do you find pictures that are a joy to look at, but he shares information on how he takes them!
It’s amazing to me that someone who is so successful in his field and who has done so much is willing to share it with us!
I have so many more favorites to share, but I think I’ll keep them for another post…
Did you like any of my favorites? How about leaving a link to one of yours!

Do you watch True Blood?
@MomGoneMadd - I saw the first season on DVD… The books are a million times better, but isn’t that always the way it is? lol The TV show was enjoyable, but not as much humor and a little darker then the books.
@angi1972 - I’ve heard the books are really good and they are talking about bringing more of the fang on fang vampire love action into the series which, I could do without watching.. I guess seeing it in your mind through words on a page and watching it on the 52 just really isn’t the same, like , at ALL. I hope they keep it in the books.
Wonderful favorites! I’ll have to do a post like this, soon!
Cool choices!
A link to my fisheye pictures (one of my favorite things as well!): Maine (main) entry
I want a fish eye,all I have for now are wall eyed boobs….does that count?
Favorite blog is 52 Suburbs.
One of my favorite blogs is can be found here http://thepioneerwoman.com/ I can promise you will laugh at the life this woman lives! Ree is a great photographer, a ranch wife, awesome cook and she is always sharing something great. Some days its a recipe, other times its a giveaway, and I never stop and read without leaving with a smile!!!
Suddenly I find myself humming…. raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens. Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens…….
I do like your favorites — which are glimpses into the way you think. Thanks for sharing them! Vampires, huh? I had to incorporate a vampire puppy into a drawing in a school yesterday. But I never do actual vampirish things in schools, so I just made him a puppy with new incisors who thinks he’s a vampire. (Guarding a surfboard shed, of all things.)
The horizon line is curved in the opposite way that the foreground .

The vineyard makes Janine and I dream ; It is another world . The world of wine .
In your case the vineyard looks planted in a sandy ground very lighted . This gives a special effect .
Of course the wine coming from this place has to be drunk in a balloonshaped glass !!
Love
Michel
I totally want your fisheye lens. SO jealous!!!
My friend Michelle LOVES Charlaine Harris!
