The Pancake Chronicles: synapsis
http://snowedinn.blogspot.com/2012/06/synapsis.html
Saturday, June 30, 2012. Can I be found? In the kitchen rearranging cupboards one more time. On the driveway digging weeds away from gravel. In the picnic that is my brain, learning to outsmart it. Eating ice cream by a fence. Pounding pavement with my new job in our old truck. Pounding nails. In the thick of it all, willing life into worn things, me included. Living! 30 June 2012 at 23:27. Im so glad youre back - I missed you - I check every day, and then nothing - so sad. 1 July 2012 at 11:10. Club Flu...

Saturday, June 15, 2013. I haven't been posting here for such a long time, and I was surprised to see that's it's been more than a year.

My blogger friend, Nan, in New Hampshire gave me the idea to group some books in one post and just write a short synopsis. Finding me in France. Creative Book Publishing 2012. This book follows the life of...

My Reading Diary: August 2011
http://blogdelivre.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 25, 2011. Was my first book, and it was wonderful. I was hooked, and since then I've read another of hers,. There are 81 items in the list, but only five or six of those have I bought. I do like the feature that allows me to 'sample' the books before I decide to buy them. Some of the most recent acquisitions are:. By Louis de Bernieres,. By Edith Wharton,. Collected Stories of Eudora Welty. I made a padded bag from some scraps in my sewing drawer. Tuesday, August 23, 2011. This novel tou...
