... and wish I'd read about 5 or 10 years ago! But, better late than never!
- Nourishing Traditions by Fallon
- Managers of our Homes by Maxwell
- Managers of their Chores by Maxwell
As you can see, I don't just read one book at a time. I tend to go back and forth between several at a time. I have actually just completed Managers of our Homes and started Managers of their Chores. Talk about making sense! These are, IMHO, a "must read" for parents, no matter what ages your children are! As for Nourishing Traditions, I know many of you have also read this book, and for those of you who haven't ... you should. It is truly eye-opening and will make you think more about the food you feed your family (and yourself!). I've only gotten to Chapter 3 so far and I have already been inclined to make some great changes in our food choices. Ever wondered if that margarine was actually any good at all for you? Read this book and you'll realize that your concerns were justified. But you'll have to read it for yourself. In the meantime, if there is a book you've read that you wish you had found years ago, feel free to add your own list in my comments! Share the wealth!
Guten Tag!
Just had to share a couple of photos from our garden. This is one of the many beautiful lillies in our garden. My neighbor says it is a double, but it looks more like a triple lily to me. And here is a picture of the first bloom on the glads in the garden. There are several more ready to bloom out on this stem, too.
I would love to take credit for having planted these, but they have just come up this year. There was NOTHING there the past 2 years. Wow. By the way, I have to give credit for the pictures to my 16 year old son. He's getting to be very interested in photography in general, and when I mentioned that I should take pictures of these beautiful flowers, he jumped and did it for me. How sweet! |
