From the back cover: “A triumphant story about the quest for freedom and empowerment, Sue Monk Kidd’s third novel presents the extraordinary journey of two unforgettable women: Hetty “Handful” Grimke, a…
These earrings have just found a sweet nook in my jewelry box. They’re replicas of the glass floats used years and years ago for fishing nets by Asian and sometimes American fishermen.

I love thinking of your spring, Jackie – in Ireland and in your step!!

The weather here in Dublin is absolutely lovely, mild and all the trees are blooming and the birds are singing. It puts a spring in my step!
