Books, Grass, Babysitter

I finished The Thirteenth Tale today. I really enjoyed it. Dark and brooding, a sort of modern Jane Eyre. Lots of crazy relatives and family secrets in a big, neglected house in England. Very suspenseful. I bought two new books last night: The Birth House, and The Book Thief. Yes, I realize I am not getting to many books in my queue over there. Sue me.

Today we will cut the wheat grass and attempt to blend and drink it. Jake says he's not trying it. Not for any amount of begging, bribery, daring, or calling him chicken. Chicken.

I was planning a quiet evening at home, but Jake just informed me we have a sitter. Oh, the possibilities! Better go clean (me and house).
