I would like to learn more about whole grains and how they can be used. You seem to be knowledgeable in this area, and I was wondering if you could recommend any websites or books that would help me out. Jennifer The books that have been most influential for me...

Comments: 5 | Categories: Books , Faith

It's a bit of a dreary, down kind of day around our house today. My poor husband has been feeling ill since last night, and has been sleeping away most of the day. I was up with him at several points in the night, and with the baby at other...

December 15, 2007: Book Review: The 100 Mile Diet (at last!)
Comments: 1 | Categories: Books , Natural living , Nutrition

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book, The 100-Mile Diet: A Year of Local Eating, and actually stayed up late a couple of nights to keep reading. It's a topic that fascinates my nutritionally minded, health-nut brain, and inspires me to re-evaluate much of what I am buying. I did not...

Comments: 1 | Categories: Books , Home Educating

My little guy is having a hard time with teething today, it seems, so I thought I'd just post a quick review of a beautiful little book that Abbie was given for her birthday last week. It's called My mommy, my teacher and it is written and illustrated by Johannah...

Comments: 1 | Categories: Books , Making money

This weekend I had a small, but significant, breakthrough on my site! I made my first sale as an Amazon Associate! Quite honestly, one sale is pretty piddly, but it's the hopeful beginning of a way to bring in a bit of income on my site. As a book lover,...

November 13, 2007: Book Review: The 100 Mile Diet (first installment)
Comments: 0 | Categories: Books , Natural living

This weekend I finally got my hands on a book that I've been really excited to read since I heard about it. It appeals to the back-to-the-land, everything natural and homemade, wish I was born in the 1800's, side of me. And yet, this book is so current, so relevant,...
