~~Here’s a picture I took on my day up in Amish country. The hitching areas were full with no room to spare because the piles of snow had covered up some of the “buggy parking” area. There’s just something about seeing people riding around in buggies that makes a person think about a more peaceful lifestyle even if that might …
Here I am with some new friends at the Gospel Book Store in Berlin, Ohio. The owners, Eli and Vesta Hochstetler, have a beautiful store there in the heart of Amish country. Vesta is beside me along with two of the store’s employees. Leah, on the left, was very patient and helpful each time I called the store to check …
~~I enjoyed a night with the Southeast Christian Book Club in Louisville on Monday. Here I am with a few of the ladies who got together with me for some extra book talk and fun before the meeting. I was so busy talking during the meeting that I didn’t get any other pictures, but we’re a happy looking bunch, aren’t …
~~What’s your favorite way to spend Sunday? We had a good one here with a touch of Spring after the snow last week. Got up in the fifties. Felt like it had been July since it had been that warm. Well, October anyway. The thing about Kentucky weather is that it’s changeable and so it’s unusual not to have some …
~~Here I am in the beautiful Brookhaven Christian Book Store last week after a visit to the local book club. Sharon, in the middle, and her daughter, Kristi, have a great store in the London, KY area. I’m there on the right holding my book. ~~Sharon enjoys keeping handcrafted items from local artists for sale in her store. She has …

I think it moved up on my favorite list when my children were in elementary school and I was room mother for their school holiday parties. I liked it that all the kids got the same number of Valentines so they could all feel like the …
~~Did you ever write any love letters? Or get a love letter? Do you like to read other people’s letters? My daughter has been reading the love letters her mother and father-in-law wrote each other while they were dating. She says they were so in love. ~~When my husband and I were dating, he was off at college and I …
~~We missed most of the snow this go around. Barely got enough snow here to think about it but they got slammed or maybe I should say buried to the north and east of us. I like snow once or twice a year but then I’m ready to move on toward sunshine and flowers. But even though we didn’t get …
~~A wirebound notebook and an inkpen are looking better and better to me tonight. My computer has a headache and that’s giving me a bigger headache and making me think fondly back to the good old days before electronics took over our lives. When I started writing back in the olden days, I loved filling up wirebound notebooks (some of …
~The weather people talked about snow for days and it finally showed up down here on the farm. We got about four inches – a light dusting compared to what they got west and south of us. But plenty for me. I like a little snow every winter, but I’m always ready to see it go, too. This morning it …
