I’m not a good shopper. Where I live there are no malls and few stores. Walmart is a 75-mile round trip, so with the price of gasoline you just don’t go every day. When we take an overnight journey of 200 miles or so and visit a mall, I’m often overwhelmed. I tend to wander…
Women’s Work, The First 20,000 Years by Elizabeth Wayland Barber was said to be “Brilliantly original” by the Washington Post Book World. I can only agree.
