Good Golly Miss Holly: In My Mailbox #53

In My Mailbox #53

Nov

28

2010

I've always been a fan of one of America's most popular holiday, Halloween but this year I celebrated Thanksgiving for the very first time coincidentally by having turkey on my lunch just the other day. I'm just kidding of course and unfortunately I've been home all week with crazy neck pain but I still managed to go see the new Harry Potter and purchase a new pair of jeans, a skirt and two pairs of shoes! For more information on the blogospheres obsession with In My Mailbox, check out Kristi's blog The Story Siren.

Justin Bieber: The Fever! | Campaign Ruby

I couldn't resist ordering a copy of THE FEVER and I'm guessing it'll be pretty interesting to see how Justin Bieber started out. CAMPAIGN RUBY is actually written by the daughter of a recent Aussie ex-prime minister and I hear it holds a little truth into Kevin Rudd's booting from the #1 spot.

Granny's Natural Remedies | Granny's Household Hints

These books aren't usually what I'd go for but they are actually really interesting and informative, I picked up some hints on old wives tales such as never putting new shoes on the table and a few tips on how to deal with migraines. I may give these two away to a friend for Christmas as I know she'll love them.

I have migraines, and I see an internal medicine doctor and he actually gave me a list of natural remedies to try that other patients had brought to him that had said helped them. I haven't tried them because the prescription meds I'm on now do seem to be working, they just had to up the dose. Grape juice works for a lot though! Happy Reading girl! Have a great week!

Oh dear, don't tell me that you have Bieber Fever? I grew up near the small town where he's from and I've heard rumors that he was a real little jerk. But who knows. Personally, I can't stand him.
Campaign Ruby sounds really interesting though.
And thanks for stopping by my IMM. Unfortunately Tomorrow hasn't been released in Canada yet where I would be able see it. It was at the Toronto Film Festival but I found out too late.
Happy reading!

ooh Holly. I am so sad that you do not know the magic of Black Friday. You see, its the day after Thanksgiving and in the US.. its the biggest shopping day of the year. Most of the stores open super, super early and there are TONS of great sales. It's absolutely crazy. All of the stores usually have "door busters" and those are really, really good deals that they only have when they first open. It's a completely insane day - but it is awesome. Usually you end up standing in line for at least an hour to checkout, depending on the store :)

Thanks for the migraine tips! I agree that walking around helps, at least in the beginning of it. Once it gets bad I usually can't even move. Sometimes I can't see so walking wouldn't work so well, or be very safe, lol.

Looks like you got some interesting books and I love the natural remedies. I stick with Natural as much as humanly possible.
