but I try not to let it over-run my other interests........
I'm a pretty fast typist and can 'find' my way around the computer pretty easy.......so I get things done quickly.......
I truly think the blog is a great idea.........wonderful outlet.........fantastic inspirational tool......and sometimes a faith enhancing experience.............
but don't forget those books...........

those great magazines.............................books are written, at times even illustrated..........and that is why we are able to write these blogs..........from all of those things............
to me - it would be a sad day when very few people read books...............and from the sound of the response I got when trying to find a good book to read, many of you still do read - actual books..........
I love looking at bookshelves.........there is a warm feeling about them............and a room without books, to me? isn't really a room at all.........just space..............
and I certainly am not going to be trapped into "space"............books ground me...........they teach me...........they make me yearn to be a better writer.............................

Hi Anne Marie
ReplyDeleteSorry I haven't been popping in as much.. I'm pretty much working 7 days a week at the moment as my project is coming to its conclusion
Love your post! I too love books and imagine that won't go away too soon.. they are the one constant through all these centuries
Take care xx Juluie
I love to read! I read every night before I turn out the lights. I find it to be very relaxing. I have stacks and stacks of magazines that I refer to often for inspiration. But then again, I don't lead as busy a life as you do. I honestly don't see how you get it all done!

I agree! I would be a total wash-out if I didn't have books. They help me keep my sanity and let me leave my life, even for a moment, and enter into a new one. Wonderful post, again...

Hey Anne Marie!! Hope you are well...I am looking forward to catching up on your blog. You have been VERY busy! :o)
ReplyDeleteHi Anne Marie~
ReplyDeleteI too love books....I'm reading a few novels right now!
I also love rooms fulled to the brim with book sheves. We have a book case in every room!
We have loads of childrens books~
I just bought a few nice hardbound Christmas books for the kiddos holiday selection!
Well I made some regular apple jelly...it turned out great but not pink(it was a golden color).
I pealed the apples and cored them.
Ran apple pieces through my juicer then strained the juice x2
then cooked the juice with the skins that I had removed for 10 minutes then took them back out (skins).
Added the pectin and sugar. Yada Yada
I did do another batch of
Candied Apple Jelly I did it much the same way but I added cinnamom red hots!
Blesssings for a beautiful day~
Warmly,
Georgiann

I am surfing through your older posts.
ReplyDeleteIt is so interesting to see and "feel" how your blog has changed through the years and has reached the wonderful high level it has reached nowadays!
I LOVE IT!
And I totally agree with you:
a room without books is just space.
With love,
