This month we’re giving away two wonderful books. Perhaps you remember someone reading them to you as a child, or maybe you read them to your children. To have your name included in our Wednesday, May 26 drawing, just answer this question. Did anyone read to you or tell you stories when you were a…
In most of the USA, including my state of Michigan, we do this thing with our clocks each year. We “spring ahead” an hour each March to place ourselves into daylight savings time, and in the autumn, we “fall back” to return to regular time for winter. Next weekend we will “spring ahead,” and I…

THE STEEPLECHASE by Carrie Fancett Pagels is a historical romance set in the early 1800s in Virginia. From the back cover: “Martha Osborne…is terribly concerned for her six-year-old…
The first word our schnauzer learned as a puppy was TREAT! I don’t blame her. Treats are an important part of my life, too. Here are a couple of my favorites, good examples of the mixed background in my family — a bit Hillbilly, a bit East Coast. We usually had pig hocks in the…
My husband and I just received a beautiful gift from our friend and cousin, Lori, and her son Brock. Lori knows how much we both love music, and she is a talented quilter. Combine the two and you have this wonderful gift that warms our lives and our hearts! And here it is in our…
