Happy Valentines Day!

Hi! Welcome to Sweet Reader!

I am Elizabeth, a 13 year old girl, and I have been taking pictures of desserts from everywhere for a few years. Over the time, I have collected quite the amount of pictures, but never really knew what to do with them. Over this past Christmas,while with my mom and some close family friends, The Prices, we came to the idea of starting a blog with my dessert pictures. I also am an avid reader, and have been reading books for Mrs. Price, a librarian at a local private school, for forever. So together we brainstormed and created the idea of Sweet Reader, a book/dessert blog. My first few posts are going to be from past desserts, and some books that I have recently read. 

So to start the blog, I have a collection of some pictures from my first time going to Blackberry Farm, in Tennessee. I had some of the best desserts there, including a welcome sugar cookie shaped like a bear! These pictures are of the bear sugar cookie, a chocolate raspberry cake, and a raspberry pastry with vanilla ice cream. 

   Right now for books, I just finished a book called Feeling Sorry for Celia by Jaclyn Moriarty. The whole book was written in letter form, which was interesting, but wasn't exactly my first choice of writing style. The overall plot was good, but the letter format kind of threw me off most of the time. Once I got used to it, the book got going, and it was good. The story of the book is about a girl, Elizabeth Clarry, who's best friend, Celia, keeps running away. Elizabeth starts writing to a girl named Christina at another local school through a program with their English teachers. Christina and Elizabeth write about their problems, and about Celia, who seems to keep disappearing for long periods of time. In the end, Christina and Elizabeth become great friends, and  Celia still remains a little wacky but still good friends with Elizabeth. There are quite a few adventures, but it's not the most exciting book. I would recommend it, but like I said before, only if you like reading in a letter format. 


So here's to the beginning of Sweet Reader, for anyone out there reading. I should be posting maybe every week, or whenever I can. Hope you enjoy!
