Hello and welcome to the September 2018 book list ( also known as my reading list). I am never quite sure what to call this. I have a To Be Read (TBR) list but for this monthly post these are books I have read (occasionally books read by my family). What do you call your list... Book List or Reading List? Maybe I am just over-thinking it. Regardless of what I call it, let's move on to the books. That's […]
I found this short poem by Walt's Writings to be just the thing to make you smile. It's a quick read but says so much if you really concentrate on the words. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. A quick read to brighten your day...what more could you ask for?

Chris Pavesic brings together two of my favorite things in this blog post. A delightfully simple almond candy recipe along with an excerpt of the book Can't Stop the Music*, both by authors C.D. Hersh. This is the co-author team of Catherine & Donald Hersh, high school sweethearts who write separately and together. What unique books they have written. I am sure you will soon find more books from the Soul Mate Tree series* in my future reading list posts. Let me know in […]

It serves that purpose quite well. Please take a look at the post & maybe give a book or two a try. I love Prudence the Part-time Cow. You will probably find several of these in my future reading lists. "Even when you're "grown up," you still have a lot to learn. […]
Reading with my grandchildren has far surpassed the joy I received from reading with my children. I did not expect this. Perhaps it's because as grandparents we appreciate life so much more now or maybe it's simply because we are not quite as rushed as we once were. Where before one part of the mind was always on household chores, meal planning, and schedules, now it's possible to simply enjoy the pleasure of a child curled up on your lap […]
Welcome to the August 2018 Reading List! The August 2018 reading list is chock full of excellent books from romances to business and planners to toddler books. It has been hot...very hot, here in the midwest. Therefore, there has been little cooking & cleaning accomplished.
