Book Blogger Hop (on a Saturday)

In the spirit of the Twitter Friday Follow, the Book Blogger Hop is a place just for book bloggers and readers to connect and share our love of the written word! This weekly BOOK PARTY is an awesome opportunity for book bloggers to connect with other book lovers, make new friends, support each other, and generally just share our love of books! It will also give blog readers a chance to find other book blogs to read! So, grab the logo, post about the Hop on your blog, and start HOPPING through the list of blogs that are posted in the Linky list below!!

The Hop lasts Friday-Monday every week, so if you don't have time to Hop today, come back later and join the fun! This is a weekly event! And stop back throughout the weekend to see all the new blogs that are added! We get over 200 links every week!!

Jennifer at Crazy-for-Books facilitates this hop each week. Stop over to add your blog to the list and start hopping around to visit other blogs too.


Her question of the week is:


"Since Thanksgiving is coming up next week, let's use this week's Hop to share what we are most thankful for and what our holiday traditions are!"


My answer is that I am thankful for the life I'm living. I have a job I enjoy and a lifestyle I treasure. I am thankful for good friends both inside the blogging community and in "real life."


For this holiday, I will be traveling to the house where I was raised in order to spend time with my brother. We have a very small family. It will be just the two of us for this holiday. But we will still be preparing the traditional Thanksgiving dinner of turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes and cranberry sauce. I think it is my job to supply the dessert. My brother is a big fan of Bakers Square's French Silk Pie. I'll be bringing one North with me.


I'll also be bringing my Kindle and a few print books to read over my brief vacation. I will be avoiding the stores this holiday weekend. Black Friday will have to get along without my financial contribution. I am much more likely to visit a casino than a retail store on Black Friday.
