My Book Blog

Well, now that I'm into blogging, I decided to create a book blog to go with my culinary blog.

While one of my passions is cooking, one of the others is reading. (The third is sewing. I don't think I'm ready for a blog on that one yet.)

Now that I'm already 40 years old (collective gasp), I have read A LOT of books. Hopefully this blog will serve as a diary of what I'm reading as well as a recollection of previous reads.

Currently I am not in a book club. I did start one back in 1996, and I'm so happy to say that they are still meeting. With children at home with busy schedules, I just am not able to get together and discuss much anymore. But, I still love reading, and I love to hear what others are reading and what others are getting out of their reading.

Being a homeschool mom, I do a lot of reading of children's literature out loud. My oldest son is entering junior high this year. I can hardly wait for him and the girls to get a bit older so that we can really sink our teeth into some of the world's great literature. I think they feel that they can wait for it, but I can't!

Until next time...
