I didn't want to leave....

I took a trip to McKay's Book Exchange yesterday with my friend, Sherrie. I love going there. I didn't have very many to trade in, but I still received a nice size credit toward new books. Here is what I found.

Six books by my favorite author, Barbara Delinsky. I love anything she writes.  


Another of my favorites is Debbie Macomber and I found three of her books that I had not read. 


Then there were an assortment of other authors that I like and I found a few books by them plus a couple by authors I had never read but the books looked good. 


We were almost ready to leave and I decided to go down this one aisle that had recipe and craft book. Oh, my goodness. 

I found these two large Christmas coffee table books for just .35 cents each. My heart just fluttered. 


I then discovered an awesome hardback book with holiday plastic canvas patterns which I just had to have for .25 cents. 


There were some hardback Christmas books with recipe and gift ideas. These were also just .25 cents. 


Then I found a couple with great ideas for fast and inexpensive Christmas crafts. These were just .25 cents each as well. 


I could not believe the selection. It was so overwhelming, I just had to stand there and stare at the choices. I am so glad that I decided to stop down that aisle. The only problem was, I didn't want to leave. I can't wait to go back again. 

Later that night, my daughter stopped by to pick up an order she had placed for Thirty-One. We missed Shelby and I went back to my office to see what she was doing. She said "I found my new Halloween costume." I'm going to be a writer. She has found my wild reading glasses and this is how she thinks she needs to do Halloween. (By the dirty face, I would say she also discovered my Kit Kat bar.
