It's also in Wall-E; as you know I'm obsessed with that movie!
I also have to tell you that I've just finished 2 books. The first one is by Lucy Jackson. I personally did not care for this book at all. It wasn't terrible written, it just wasn't terribly exciting. It didn't have too much of a plot or rising action, however, since it was well written I hung on until the end, waiting for anything to happen, and it didn't. I give this book 0 stars.
I also finished Secret Society Girl by Dian Peterfreund. I loved this book. It is about a secret society called Rose & Grave at an ivy league university. I think I personally liked it one, because it was well written and two, because it is somewhat like a sorority on steroids. It also dabbles with feminism with the argument of women being let into the secret society. I will give it 4 stars!Tonight I dined at a place about 2 minutes from my house. It's somewhat new (the last 3 years) and I've only been there one other time. Tonight was perfect weather and we were to lucky to have sat on the back patio to enjoy the night. I had Greek Spanikopida with grilled vegetables and balsamic orzo. It was absolutely fantastic. I wore my French Connection dress that I found at Marshall's last week and it was such a comfortable dress to be in. After dinner, we all watched the SYTYCD finale. I am so happy Jeanine won! I also loved that they re-danced the If It Kills Me one with Jason and Jeanine, it is my absolute favorite dance. Also, you must head over to my "real-life" friend, Caroline's blog called Sweet Caroline. She has had her blog for a while and always has such fun posts plus she is a lover of J.Crew and Lilly as well!
Tomorrow is Friday as I'm sure everyone is excited for the weekend! Have a great night.
Yours,

I love that song - it was in one of my favourite movies (Sabrina the remake)!
I had no idea that you knew Caroline! I've been reading her blog forever. A sweetie!
Thanks for the book/blog reccomedation! I will definitly read them both!
I read both of those books, too! And I absolutely agree with you. Posh was a poor man's Prep. That will always be my fave. Loved loved that book! You have to read it if you haven't.
Come on over to my place because I'm doing a book giveaway right now! 5 winners get "The Mating Rituals of the North American WASP" by Lauren Lipton. Sooooo good! Loved it! And the cover is super preppy! ;)
That is one of my favorites also.
I need to get that first book, thanks for the recky!
The Jason and Jeanine dance was so sweet; I especially love that song. If you love Louis Armstrong you would love the old movie "High Society". It's fantastic.
So glad someone else read Secret Society Girl, I finished it last week, but read it in quiet, thinking husband would eternally mock me! But oh I loved it, and so glad you did too! I have Posh but haven't read it yet, glad to hear a good review, might dig in this weekend! Have a good one!
XOXO
Thanks for the book review...I've had secret society girl for a while but haven't gotten around to reading it so I think that will be my next book!
OMG! This is one of my Fave songs, it makes me SMILE, whenever I hear it! I grew up listening to Edith Piaf and Jacques Brel, along with Louis Armstrong and many more fab singers! Every other weekend I go to Borders to buy one or two books, so this weekend I'll pick up Secret Society Girl. - What a GREAT POST !!!
p.s. Have A FUN Weekend!
Thank you for stopping by my blog, you are always welcome...I also adore Mr Armstrong a true master...
I am a little less than halfway through Posh. I really didn't like Prep so we'll see what I think of Posh.
I really liked Secret Society Girl-I may get the sequel.
