Do you know what is happening tonight? A blue moon! And not just ANY old blue moon but a Super Blue Blood Moon!
I feel like this should be a national Under a Blue Moon holiday. Everyone take the day off! Moon pies for all!
I have always loved all things celestial, the moon and stars especially. When I started this blog some 11+ years ago I had no idea anyone would read it other than me and my niece Sara. She had started a blog and it seemed like a fun idea so I jumped in and didn't give too much thought to the name. I wanted it just to be Blue Moon but that was already taken. It kind of suits since I don't really stick to any one topic – so this is my version of anything under the sun.
Side note – is it just me or does anyone else just LOVE snooping in other people's bookcases? I love to see what books they read. This bookcase houses decorating, gardening and craft books so it doesn't give you too much of a glimpse into my reading preferences. Fiction takes up two book cases elsewhere in the house.
Side note no. 2 – I rarely buy decorating, garden or craft books new. I find they are the type of books people flip through once and then get rid of so you can find them in nearly pristine shape for way less than you would pay new.
A new holiday and book buying tips. My work here is done.
Garden, decorating and craft books are ALL I buy – LOL!! – and unlike you any books I buy, mostly all anyway, have to be brand spanking new. I hate thinking of someone else having pawed through my book. I want to be first! The books that I get from the library are a different story. Hee!
Yeah – pretty much the only physical books I buy are in those three categories since I mostly listen to fiction on AudioBooks. But I get where you are a coming from. Im the same way about magazines. I want to be the first!
