These are two of my favorite books both to read (She is HILARIOUS) and for the FABULOUS watercolors!
Besides that it just makes you feel good to open them up again, and again, and again. There are books that I buy that I look at once and never open again. But not these babies! They sit on the side of my bed and are revisited often like an old friend.
The author Vivian Swift is delightful and talented and has a wry wit - my kind of gal!

I have both books too and I LOVE Vivian! Her blog is amazing too and she's so good to her fans. I got a Christmas card from her with her art on it. She's the reason I wanted to do watercolor and now I'm going to with your upcoming workshop! Yay! :)

Thanks for the recommendation! I'm always looking for beautiful books - especially if they make me laugh. I live in a foreign country to have to order stuff and have it sent to family back in the States and then WAIT till I visit there to get them...but these will go on my list! I think I need to buy an e-reader.
