Books
I love to read... fiction mostly, but I'm pretty open-minded and enjoy checking new authors and genres. Most recent reads include: The Glass Castle, A Thousand Splendid Suns, The Choice, the Twilight Saga, P.S. I Love You, Certain Girls, The Kite Runner and I'm newly hooked on Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series.
About me: My life revolves around my 2 Retta boys. The little man is 3 and he's a handful. We aren't ready to even THINK about having another kid yet-- so don't ask! We've also got 2 Beagle babies (but only 1 that actually behaves like a baby).
I pretty much can't live without: dark chocolate, vanilla vodka, margaritas, Starbucks Caramel Macchiatos, creme brulee, Dove ice cream bars, live music, my iPod, XM radio, books, red wine, sushi, *authentic* Mexican food, cake, ice cold beer, freshly baked bread, warm cookies, seafood, steak and my computer.
The best things in life, according to retta are: Sundays, paid holiday, long bike rides, spending time with good friends and traveling.
