The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern

Well, in an effort to keep my personal promises (both to myself and to the lovely blog readers out there) I have decided to post how I am doing in my 2012 “resolutions/goals“:

First, I have completed my first read of 2012 which was goal #1.  The title of this novel is The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern.  And from a scale of 1 to 10, it was easily a 8.5.  This book was filled with magic, imagination and plenty of mystery.  The author painted a rich tapestry of a divine world, that you never wanted to have end.  Simply stated, it was delicious… especially with all of the cold, wet winter outside my window.   If you are looking for a new read, I would 100% recommend this book!

My reading goal has been expedited by another goal: to keep on movin.  You see when I hit the gym, I love reading my Kindle.  It makes the time on the elliptical machine literally fly on by.   I am sticking to burning calories, getting in shape…with the overall goal of May 26th in the forefront of my mind.

As for the cupcakes, I am going to attempt a new recipe at some point this weekend…. I will be sure to keep you all posted on my success or failure.
