Winchester is such a lovely city and I was looking forward to walking around with my camera admiring all the street stalls and shops decorated for Christmas. I managed about half an hour before I got too cold and gave up on my photographic meanderings. It was time to dive into a pub for some warm conversation and a meal before enjoying Ken's newest lecture. Great talk and straight from the heart too. It was very engaging to learn about how his life long passion for photography was kindled.
I lingered here for a while waiting to get a person silhouetted against the bright shop window in the background.

I love reading novels on my kindle paperwhite.
I am currently reading Follow The Money by Steve Boggan
It's a true story about an English guy who travels to the centre of America and sets free a ten dollar bill and accompanies it on it's epic journey around 6 states across 3,000 miles as people spend it!

My Kindle 3 review is up on the Sun-Times' site.
Here are a couple of photos that accompany the piece. Someday soon, the CST's site will support nice, big, detailed photos. Until then...I weep and I rend my garment.
The second-biggest feature of the Kindle 3? The size. Amazon found a way to delete about a half an inch from both dimensions without making the screen any smaller.
That's a big deal. I tested the Kindle 3 out with a bunch of different pants, jackets and shirts in my closet...that extra half an inch makes the Kindle 3 fit in most of my pants and jacket pockets and even some shirt pockets.
(Yes, this particular Kindle 2 is a dud. I'd long-since returned my K2 loaner to Amazon; this is how a friend of mine learned that her long-unused Kindle doesn't hold a charge.)
She finally has a name! FYI, not named after the book device :P
It's funny, now i've sold three of the four dolls I wanted to sell, I have the funds....and can't decide which doll/dolls to buy! I also have to stay away from clothes websites.

Sydney nabbed my Kindle, so I made her help me out with a photos before she could read it.. ;) haha
I actually like the way this turned out though.
Also, check out my new group: Your Life In Photos.
Thank you to everyone who has already joined, and to those of your that have not, you are more then welcome to join!!
I thought if I made a little case for my kindle it might motivate me to do some reading. I've also been dying to dive into my fairy tale fabrics lately, so I came up with this using the tutorial from the Sometimes Crafter.

Cover (Kindle) art design for Voices from the OLD Earth by Regina Clarke.
"A mysterious city is an enchanter across time, transforming the lives of those who journey through it.
For Simma, it exists on a distant planet where souls seem to disappear and her job is to recover them. For Beornan, creating the songs in his heart is all he wants, but he is seen as a demon because of them and must escape his village to find sanctuary in the city. For Roger Connay, a physicist, the city is a place of wheelers and dealers in high places where power and money are gods, and for a time he is one of them, until he is given the chance to encounter other probabilities. For Kai-lun and Ming, imminent attack of marauders against their peaceful life sends them into the desert and mountains to find the city and a treasure it holds, at the urgent demands of the old one, Ming’s mother.
For Enya, the narrator, the lost city was once her hope for a new world and is now a place that appears to her only in visions when she listens to ancient music. Out of this she hears the voices of the others telling her their stories, and because of them, she begins to seek a peace with old memories and who she is now."

The new Amazon Kindle 2 Wireless eBook Reader is the amazing new little device that puts thousands of books right into your hand. It ways only 10 ounces, 10.2 ounces, lighter than a typical paperback. It wirelessly delivers books to you in less then 30 seconds with no PC required.
It includes actual simulated ink that is much easier on the eyes then just a regular video screen. It has an extremely long battery life, allow you to read for many days without recharching. It beats out the Sony Reader in many features.
Having been an avid reader of hard back books for many years I changed, a few years ago, to being a Kindle e-reader, which I must say I really love!
Being a little OCD I would never read a hardback book after someone else had read it (!!) the book would have to be untouched, I just loved that unique smell you get from a brand new book .... now my Kindle has taken care of that little issue!! I also have the Kindle App on my iPhone and therefore my current book is always with me so those long walks when I stop for a coffee I can catch up on a couple of chapters!!

Thanks to everyone who views this photo, adds a note, leaves a comment and of course BIG thanks to anyone who chooses to favourite my photo .... Thanks to you all!
I've been editing this since this morning and I honestly really don't like it. This is me in my kitchen with my kindle, which I love dearly. I edited this with one of Sara Ann Loreth's actions which was lovely. I just feel that the picture is missing something and I feel like I officially suck at editing. ;) whatever. ;p
*Update: Thanks to snjscuba for his wonderful suggestions and observations. He mentioned the contradition between the vintage tones and modern device which I thought was an excellent point. He also suggested making it even more vintage by adding maybe a few scratches. After re-editing I have to admit I am much more pleased with this image. I added a few textures and a little contrast and a pink fill to add to the vintage feel. Thank you so much snjscuba.
Got a new toy a few weeks ago, it was surprising how easy it was to get used to reading on it, if you've not seen an E-ink display you will be amazed by it's clarity (much better than a computer monitor)

Not much going on today, just hanging around the house chilling' and doing some housework. I could not think of a K word that inspired me. Not to mention that the high temperature today was 19°F. Not counting wind chill. Way too cold to go out, even for groceries. We made do with what we had around here for dinner. I had several ripe avocados and the makings for guacamole, so I whipped up a big bowl of it and that's what we had for dinner.
