REVIEW: MoriaVaratu by David Lee Jones

MoriaVaratu by David Lee Jones






"Geologist Dr. Brandon Jordan flees to Mars to escape the tormenting loss of his young son and wife to a rampant, global blood virus on Earth. Upon starting his life on the Red Planet, he stumbles onto an ancient secret that distracts him from the oppressive depression and sends his life hurtling into an adventure that not only solves eon’s old mysteries on Mars, but connects to unsolved history back on Earth. In the end he is forced to become an unlikely hero in a war that, unbeknownst to humankind as a whole, has spanned across two worlds and unfathomable time altering the course of humanity."








This is one of those books that pulls you in, so deeply, that you feel you are actually there, you truly do not want to put the book down because you're going to miss out on what a character is going to do!
A great sci-fi that WILL become a classic! 
Do you like vampires, but not the campy kind? 
Love a continuing mystery? 
Like to be surprised? 
Pick up a copy!

I so want this book turned into a movie! Eagerly awaiting the next book!

MEN... TODAY is Valentine's Day










MEN... TODAY is Valentine's Day - you do NOT need to spend hundreds of dollars on us! That is a waste of hard-earned money, trust me... just use your imagination... let me tell you how cool a HOMEMADE card is along with a homemade dinner or dessert... VERY! You know why? You had to put your feelings into it. Yes, we like chocolate, we like flowers, but most of all, we like YOU as a person, otherwise we wouldn't be with you. Do not waste a load of money on something that lasts one day.








I love you THIS MUCH

Pop singer Whitney Houston dead at 48


Pop singer Whitney Houston dead at 48
Cause and location of singer's death unclear
The Associated Press Posted: Feb 11, 2012 8:09 PM ET

Whitney Houston, who reigned as pop music's queen until her majestic voice and regal image were ravaged by drug use, has died. She was 48. Publicist Kristen Foster said Saturday that the singer had died, but the cause and the location of her death were unclear. At her peak in the 1980s and `90s, Houston the golden girl of the music industry and one of the world's best-selling artists. Among her hits were How Will I Know, Saving All My Love for You and I Will Always Love You. She won multiple Grammys including album and record of the year. Her success carried her beyond music to movies like The Bodyguard. But by the end of her career, drug use took its toll as her record sales plummeted and her voice became raspy and hoarse.

For the gals (who are still dealing with cramps...)


Menstrual Cramp Tea

Make this when you are feeling crampy, it will magically make you feel better. Daikon helps to relax the liver, and in Chinese medicine, the liver is the organ that governs female reproduction. So when the liver relaxes, our female discomforts, quiet down. This drink will also help reduce swelling of the ankles.

Serves 1

½ cup Daikon (grated into a pulp) (Oriental/Japanese Radish)
½ c Spring Water
1-2 drops Shoyu (a Soy Sauce)

Combine the ingredients in a glass, mix well, and drink.
It is important to eat lighter, fresher dishes right before your period. Skip bread and go easy on the salt. Eat more veggies, especially lightly cooked green ones. It is not unusual to crave sugar or chocolate before menstruating, so let yourself have some good quality sweets. You might even want an organic beer or sake to help you relax. If you don’t drink alcohol, try a glass of warm apple juice or even warm carrot juice. Sounds weird but tastes great. ~ Alicia Silverstone. The Kind Diet/The Kind Life
