Thirsty Thursday and Hungry Hearts #143
Welcome to Thirsty Thursday and Hungry Hearts, an original weekly meme hosted here at (un)Conventional Bookviews. So many of the books I read have food or drinks in them, some I’d love to try, and others I’d never ever want to taste… and I thought it could be interesting and fun to share some food and / or drink quotes… If you want to participate, you can grab my logo if you’d like, or you can make your own, but please link back to me in your own post.
The idea of Thirsty Thursday and Hungry Hearts is to share a quote with food or drinks that showed up in a recent read, as well as if it’s something you think you’d like or not. Please share the title of the book it happened in, as well as the character who ate or drank the special little something you discovered between the pages of a good read. Please link up beneath, and visit other bloggers who are participating in Thirsty Thursday and Hungry Hearts as well.
This week’s Hungry Hearts quote is from Jill Shalvis’ upcoming release About That Kiss. If you are familiar with the Heartbreaker Bay series, you know Tina makes the best muffins ever. And all the women meet up in Tina’s café every now and then for a chat, something to drink, and those famous muffins 😉 In this scene, Kylie has a huge splinter in her finger, and goes to Haley for help. In lieu of money, Haley wants muffins as payment 😀
“Done.” Haley held up her tweezers, revealing a splinter a good inch long. “Wow.” “Yeah, and you’re welcome,” Haley said. “You owe me a bag of Tina’s muffins.” “Thought you were on some sort of ridiculously strict diet. Something about a bikini and summer season ahead…”
Haley sighed. “I just don’t know how I went from being sixteen years old and eating pasta for every meal and wearing a size zero to being twenty-six, drinking kale, and debating wearing a T-shirt to the pool.” “Well, I think you look great,” Kylie said honestly. Haley hugged her. “Thanks. And I’m over myself. I really do want – no, make that need – muffins.”
After Kylie was bandaged and had paid the bill in the form of the promised muffins, she was headed back to Reclaimed Woods via the courtyard […]

Thanks for stopping by today, I look forward to reading your Thirsty Thursday and Hungry Hearts quote. Have a terrific Thursday and don’t forget to link up.
I’d take muffins as payment any day… ?
I know, right? I would definitely agree to muffins as payment 🙂
Oh, the days of eating pasta for every meal and not worries about the pounds…
Take me back! ?
*groans* How I wish that was still the case! I love food 🙂 And wine!
The sad thing is that now that I can better afford the nicer food and wine, I have to limit it! No fair! ?
So cute! I always ask friends for food (or books!) instead of cash when they ask me for a favor. <3
Ha! So you could be friends with Haley, Aimee!
Sounds like they’re great friends! Shalvis is another author I want to read more of this year, wifey. 🙂
Happy Thursday! {{{BIG HUGS}}}
Shalvis is the bomb! I know you know that already, but you know, just in case you needed a reminder;)
Miss you, wifey! {{{BIG HUGS}}}
