Its May, which signifies many things to many people, Mother’s Day, end of the year partys, concerts, plays, dreaded tests, and an anniversary or two. As with every other month, unless you are single (and maybe then, too) you are busy, busy, busy, running around like crazy and forgetting about numero one…umm, yes that is YOU! At our house, [...]
February is here…how did that happen?!? I think I must have blinked too many times in January. This is a busy time at our house…my husband just hit the big 40 and my baby will turn 13 before the month ends. Throw in some baton, softball and musical practice and you know I am going [...]
When we last met, I was in the middle of the great tablet/e-reader debate with my husband. As you know, we both had differing opinions on what I wanted or needed in one of these multifunctional gadgets! In the end, I left it up for my husband to research and surprise me…and that he did with the [...]
Over the past few weeks, the Christmas lists and ideas have been flying around our house. My girls’ lists start with big electronic items from a certain fruit store, followed by stilts, odd t-shirts, shoes, sunglasses and bows.

I’m sure you have been reading in your friends’ posts what they are thankful for. November’s typical daily posts generally start with kids, husband, family, pets, and by the end of the month, we are getting the strange and wonderful posts…coffee, sleep and warm slippers! So, since this blog is about books and reading, I decided to tell you some of [...]
I absolutely love the fall season, and where I live the trees are changing colors and the air is crisp and cool. I recently visited my favorite apple orchard and winery and it was such a sweet and simple pleasure! I am also one of those adults who likes to still dress up in a [...]
This month’s topic of Alzheimer’s, I admit was a little perplexing to me in the theme of books and reading. The topic holds a special place in my heart, yet how I could relate it to my column was challenging. I hope my post delivers some inspiration to your reading needs.
As a college undergrad [...]
The crisp opening and binding crack of a never before read book reminds me of biting into a juicy piece of fruit. It’s absolutely delicious. It is why I haven’t transitioned all my reading to an E-Reader. I would miss that smell of the paper too much. I have to say, I was a complete [...]
The Freedom to Read can mean many ideas to different people. One meaning I want to explore is that we as individuals literally have the absolute freedom to read. We can enjoy the simple act of reading and know that no one can take that act away from us.
As educated women, we [...]
