Gimme Gimme Gimme That Fish
It's so funny and catchy! We sing this song wherever we go! (well for the past the 24 hours). Don't know if I'll buy more filet-o-fish products, but it definitely fun!
Hope you are having a wonderful day!

Jodi Picoult
Have you ever read Jodi Picoult books? If you haven't, I highly recommend it. Yesterday, I just finished my 2nd book by her....and Oh My Goodness! It was phenomenal!
Awhile ago, I was introduced to Jodi Picoult through a new book club that I joined a month or two ago. We were required to read Change of Heart by Jodi Picoult. It is about a guy on death row who decides during the book that he wants to donate his heart to the sister of the girl he killed. Does the mother take the heart or not? Is it possible to donate organs while having the death penalty as your way of death? Lethal injection kills your heart so you can't reuse the heart. What do they do? What happens?
The second book I read by Jodi Picoult was My Sister's Keeper. This book made me stop a couple times to think...what would I do in the situation? How could I request medical emancipation from my parents when it affects my sister? One of my best friends? That's what this book is about....a sister who was created to be her dying sister's donor. She was created with the perfect DNA for her sister so she could live longer. Anytime the dying sister needed blood or bone marrow, the sister gave it. It takes a deep look into a heart wrenching situation.
I don't want to give you too many other details, but I do suggest both these books. I can't really suggest her other books, but I have no doubt in my mind that they are good.
Enjoy a good book? Please share!
