Week 6 -- Feb 4-Feb 11 Listing -- 10/10 items claimed

4. Anniversary: Lover Reborn (pg 569) -- It was supposed to be for our anniversary…

7. Cassette Tape: Thoughtless (pg 61) -- The inside was surprisingly spacious, with black leather bench seats in the front and the back, I had to suppress a laugh at the old fashioned looking tape deck.
8. Bacon: Material Girl (pg 131) -- A couple of dogs, a bacon mushroom cheeseburger with fries, and two cokes.”
9. Wig: S.E.C.R.E.T.--( pg 223) -- She reached into her purse and pulled out a Veronica Lake–style platinum blond wig.
10. Decade: Lover Reborn (pg 173) Only by decade, I believe?
