Book Friday !
It's here, it's here !
Yesterday a book came in the mail.
From a friend from my homeland, who is the author.
First Edition.
Signed, with dedication.
About my city, my land, sea, and then more.
A real treat.
Come back soon for a complete review.
In the meantime, thank you, Simone.

Goodby, CowBoy !
It was a matter of time, we knew that, we were hoping that somehow Cowboy would be around for a long time, even for a cat. Only kitten from our Moka mama-cat, he has been the most long living, real survivor on a property with coyotes, howls, hawks, and many more dangers.
Here we lost countless cats, one dog, and the count goes on.
But no Cowboy. He was a natural born killer cat. Didn't look like it. At first sight he looked more like a lazy, fat cat, content to stretch on the front porch, and play pranks on our dogs...
However, no squirrel, no bird, no snake were safe from Cowboy. His agility to climb, and his unbelievable speed made him a squirrel killing machine hard to beat. Often we would find dead (and decapitated) squirrels by the front door, with Cowboy just few feet away...
Cowboy is no more. One morning he just didn't show up as usual. Guess he found the "faster gun"...
Goodbye, old friend.

Books Books Books ( for free ! )
Well, for once a post with no pictures..
I am super excited, following a friend's link, I found a site called
Book Sneeze.
Here is the deal: if you are a blogger, and love books, you just found a small gem. After you send in an application, this guys will have a look at your blog, and if accepted, you can request a free book at the time, read it, write a review on the book, blog about it, and keep the book.
For a family of bookworms like mine, this is so sweet.
Sorry, Roberto V. from Trieste Daily Photo I am afraid this is only for US residents.
Have a happy weekend, you all !
