Fiber Arts Guild of Pittsburgh member Kitty Spangler will teach you how to make beautiful paste paper that can be used for making paper beads or other paper crafts. Paste papers are one of the earliest methods used to decorate paper. From the late 16th century through to the 18th century they were predominately used as book covers and as endsheets. Paste paper is made by applying paste paint in one or more colors to a sheet of paper with a brush or sponge.

Dead Until Dark / Charlaine Harris
Sookie Stackhouse is a cocktail waitress in small-town Louisiana, but she keeps to herself and doesn't date much because of her "disability" to read minds. When she meets Bill, Sookie can't hear a word he's thinking. He's the type of guy she's waited for all of her life, but he has a disability, too--he's a vampire with a bad reputation. When one of Sookie's coworkers is killed, she fears she's next.
