Unbroken

My book club tonight is discussing the book Unbroken by Laura Hillenbrand. This is the cake I made in honor of this UH-mazing story. (It's a shark coming at a life boat in the ocean, if you can't tell. I had a hard time finding the right angle so it didn't look like a shark attacking a banana:) ) If you haven't read it, I highly recommend it. It's the story of an American star athlete-WWII Navy airmen-airplane crash survivor- Japanese POW-hero. And it's a true story. Extremely inspiring tale of overcoming adversity and standing up for what's right. It definitely changed my outlook this month on my own adversity.

And here's to book clubs everywhere, that expand our minds and give us a chance to share ideas and friendship!

Goddess of Love

Nora: (coming to me while I'm doing my hair) I just don't look like myself today.
Me: You don't? What do you look like?
Nora: (Sing song voice) Aphrodite, goddess of love!
