By the time I hit post on this, I am sure it won't be Friday anymore. Oh, well. I had a busy day. And I'm going to have an even busier weekend.
Between gifts and shopping, we got several new books since I last posted an update. I think I'll just talk about a few today.
First, I won Angels: A Pop-Up Book by Chuck Fischer from Bermuda Onion! She had a really interesting interview with the paper engineer Bruce Foster that I enjoyed. It was really cool to actually get a copy and get to see the results of his hard work. Thank you to Bermuda Onion and Bruce Foster!
For Christmas, from my boss, I got NorCalMod: Icons of Northern California Modernism by Pierluigi Serraino. It is gorgeous. And I always like know more about the architecture in the area I live.
The last book I'll mention I got today will answer the question (posed earlier) of where we spent Christmas: Hawai'i!
Hawaii's Birds by the Hawaiian Audubon Society: I'm not a birder, but I thought this was a concise, well-illustrated guide to all the different birds I saw on our trip.
The trip, by the way, was amazing. We spent a week on the Big Island. I got to go snorkeling, coffee tasting, see the volcano, and lava hitting the ocean. So cool! It was my first time and I am ready to go back again.
Hawaii!! Oh how I would love to be there (well actually, anywhere warm with ocean and a beach). Did you wake up in the mornings hearing the birds sing?
ReplyDeleteNot really - more like woke up in the morning hearing my husband snore, as he slept in. =)
