Winter reading

A friend lent me (Cheryl) her copy of Animal, Vegetable, Miracle: A Year in Food Life by Barbara Kingsolver. I started it last night. I had gotten to bed a little later than usual, and wanted to just read a few pages then put it down and drift off to sleep.

What was I thinking??????

I couldn't put it down! I kept going until I got to the end of the first chapter! Then, I absolutely forced myself to put it down to get some sleep. (After all I had to work today, and our little girl is a morning person!)

I had heard from so many people that this book is good. Well, I don't know how it ends, but the beginning is right on. This author has a knack for saying what I'm feeling about the whole "Locavore" issue - we should all be one!!!!

So, even with only one chapter under my belt, I wholeheartedly recommend this book. And it's a good time to be reading it - there's snow still on the ground!

Keep reading .... I really liked it. In fact, it's been awhile. I'll have to go back & skim over it again! Perfect for this time of year.
