I have diligently wrote the names of these books ( those I have not read) and will march to my library and see what they offer and order the rest on Amazon then I will give them to the library.
Best Regards,
Hmm, home and garden top rated books? Seems to be three categories: dogs, socks and gardens. (As in put socks on your dog while he's digging in the garden to prevent dirty paws!)
I am new to blogging but discovered yours on Twice Remembered blog roll. Glad I stopped by and will be doing so often. Your blog and photography are beautiful.
Happy New Year!
kinda surprised those made the list - not what I expected either.
Not what I expected..but then our dog passed and he was a good doggie. I don't knit though I wish I did. And I do garden.
I just ordered about $150 worth of books off of amazon to carry me through the depressing winter months. But mine were all home decor:
Thrifty Chic: Interior style
New Farmhouse Style
Atlanta Bartlett
The New Rachel Ashwell book
nice chatting with you-
tammy
gotta say I am loving my bag you made. It was very handy being so large - I carried all the parent gifts over to their house on Christmas and they all awed over how nice it was.
Wow...I didn't know 2009 was so...lame.(?) Surely they could have compiled a better list! This isn't even a true list, there's more than 1 genre! I sure don't own anything about weeds or killing Abe Lincolns mother. Are you serious?? Who writes this stuff?? haha
That's funny...socks?
Great gift ideas for the New Year!
