New look & new book!

After much research and a bit of annoyance, I have finally figured out how to personalize the blog banner. What do you think? I took this picture in St. Lucia last December. Just looking at it reminds me of what a wonderful time we had on that trip. It also excites me to think of my future and the endless possibilities it has in store for me and Brett. I promise to keep wedding-related news and all the 'ewwie gooie' stuff out of this blog... but still, this banner pic makes me smile.

In other news, I made a mini goal for myself this month. I will be doing everything within my power to read one new book each month starting with - drum roll please - The Omnivore's Dilemma by Michael Pollan. It's been lazily alternating between my shelf and night table for the past 6 months. It's one of those books that I *want* to read and I have every intention of reading... I just keep finding other books to read in the process. Alas, it's just me and Pollan now. I'll let you know how it goes by July 31st.

Anybody reading anything good lately? I'm always up for recommendations. Comment away!
