Fields & Fire BlogGratitude Friday – Books!
(our 2009 PVHG grain share)
Has it really been a whole week? Before we go further – we’re very grateful this week for this kind mention in The New York Times.
This week, I’d like to linger in some gratitude for books. Those who know me probably know that I’m a big bibliophile. A friend once told me that when she pictured my house, she pictured no furniture, just stacks of books – everywhere. (Which has been close to the truth at times!)
Somewhere, I had a photo of a stack of books. Not on this computer, apparently! So we’ll just have to make do with an old-fashioned list, of some of the wonderful books bringing light to my life right now:
Vintage Baby Knits, by Kristen Rengren
Turning the Mind Into an Ally, by Sakyong Mipham
All Year Round, by Ann Druitt, Christine Fynes-Clinton, and Marije Rowling
The Happiness Project by Gretchen Rubin
Kindergarten with Your Three to Six Year Old, by Donna Simmons
Before the Journey by Melisa Nielsen
Grow Your Own Drugs, by James Wong
Buddhism for Mothers of Young Children, by Sarah Napthali
May they bring joy to you as well! Have a great weekend everyone.
A good reminder for me on a Friday to find some quiet time with a book. Thank you. A mention in the Times; very nice. An informative article. Everything we need is in our own backyard. Thanks Adrie
