polaroid stories

blurb01.jpg

last month I decided to compile some of my favorite Polaroid photos and blog posts into a little book. and here it is. paperback, 7X7 and 26 pages filled with small moments of my everyday life from September 2005 to November 2007. the book will soon be available to preview and purchase on Blurb but in the meantime, I'd be most delighted to send a copy and a set of 6 Polaroid postcards to two readers of my blog. if you're interested, please leave a comment with your name and email address and I'll randomly pick two commenters on Sunday, December 23rd.

I'm taking a couple of weeks off to take care of my sick child and a sinus infection, finish knitting projects, make heart shape pizzas, play dominos and celebrate the holidays with my family.

thank you, thank you all so much for your wonderful words and kind support this past year.
