What i've been up to and #BSMPhotoADay

Well, i've been all into my book blogging and

Swappin' Scraps club and clearly have abandoned

my very first, beloved blog...

fear not, i'm working on squeezing it in the

schedule once more.  I jumped off the bandwagon

but am in full mode creating again so I will be

sharing that with you all super soon!

In the meantime, check this out...

The talented ladies at Book Soulmates are at it again

and for the Month of May have given us another

Photo A Day Challenge!!!

Check it out and join in on the fun HERE!

day 1 & 2

  
1.  About Me.  My nickname is Sarita, I'm on my way to 32 (wah!). I love my job as a CNA. I'm a wifey, daughter, little sissy, Titi and momma to my little furball Riley J. I'm a scrapping', swappin' bookie who loves the Batman . 

2.  My Bookcase.  We live in a small apartment so I have 2 small book cases.  They sit tight holding just about 150 books, not too shabby I guess :)

day 3

  
3.  Book Quote.  When I read The Fault In Our Stars, I just fell in love with John Green's writing.  The quotes from both the main characters were just eye openers and inspirational and definitely worth passing it along.

day 4 & 5

  
4.  Favorite Series.  J.R. Ward has me trapped reading, and yes, re-reading the stories of the Black Dagger Brotherhood.  The latest installment was the best so far, although I do wish the last chapter was a lot longer lol!!!!!

5.  Cinco de Mayo.  Letting the waves flow.  This is the latest lazy do for the spring/summer and I'm kind of liking it.  So are all my IG peeps ;)  Thanks for all the love!

day 6 & 7 

  
6.  Ereader.  This is my Nook Tablet, Nookster.  She and I go together every where just in case I can squeeze in some reading time lol.  She even ventured with me on my vacation to Puerto Rico where she was dragged uphill by Agua, my cousins dog and survived AND the cherry on top, I left her there and had to wait until my family could mail it back-longest wait ever but i'm happy to report she is now home and resting under my pillow case waiting for tonight's night shift :)

6.  Favorite Childhood Book(s).  Hands down goes to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl.  Every single time, I repeat EVERY time we went to the library as a kid I would get into an argument with my Mom because I would always take it out again lol.  Such an inspirational and fun story for any age.  I highly recommend this being in every single household!

I will be posting on IG (sarabeth0613) and

Twitter (sarabeth0613) daily too!

Leave a link to your #BSMPhotoADay pics

Twitter or IG handle so I can check them out!

Happy Reading!

Kindle Fire HD Giveaway!!!!

There is no doubt that Isabelle Thornton of Le Chateau des Fleurs is talented.  This French-girl-gone-Utah has a wildly popular blog full of interesting DIY posts, photography, giveaways, and great reviews.  Aside from being an awesome blogger, she also creates fun apps for phones.  Previously her "Make Me Skinny" or Bon Bon app has kept many entertained as they edited and adjusted photos on their iPhones, and now I'm excited to announce she's released an entirely new app!  This one is different, and for Android!

Let's face it, sometimes you spend more time with your smart phone than you do with your spouse, friends, coworkers, and family... You sleep with it, eat with it, and admit it-you take it to the bathroom with you!  With Smartphone DNA you are creating a new kind of experience with your Smartphone.

What is Smartphone DNA?  

Smartphone DNA is an app dedicated to Twitter users, and it allows you to collect your Twitter DNA via your Android phone, and then compare it against other twitter users to see how much you match!  This is a great way to locate new Twitter friends that have things in common with you! 

How it works:

1. Smartphone DNA shows you a list of apps you currently have installed.
2. You select the apps you want to share as part of your DNA
3. Smartphone DNA shows you how closely you match the DNA of other users.

Smartphone DNA is 100% secure and controlled by you.

Win a Kindle Fire HD

To celebrate the release of Smartphone DNA, Isabelle is offering one lucky newsletter subscriber  a brand new Kindle Fire HD!  Can you say wow?  This is the reader of all readers-with a 7" full color HD display, exclusive Dolby audio, and ultra-fast WiFi it's top of the line.  Don't miss out on this opportunity to have one for yourself!  Follow the break to enter the giveaway:
