“The 100 Mile Diet” was a recent read along the lines of some of the books you have mentioned.

i loved muir woods when i went!
i am in awe of how you have time to knit, weave, AND read books! i always end up forgoing the reading for knitting when i have the time. what a bummer. i really miss reading.

I’m probably the last person to read this, but I started A Year in Provence by Peter Mayle on audio, and it is really interesting to hear about what life is like in that region in the “off” season. Most of us never consider winter in Provence, I bet.

Love your photo of you and the bookcases. I think bookcases tell a lot about a person, and I can’t resist taking a peek at the titles when I visit someone new.

Your bookshelves are so pretty. But then, I love books. Of course, I now have more to add to my reading list, too. I’d second the Kingsolver book (Animal, Vegetable, Miracle, mentioned above)…it’s a great read for anyone interested in gardening and living a lifestyle suited to environmental sustainability.

I have been so spoiled by the forests here in the pacific northwest. They are the stuff of fairytales, I swear. Hoping to make it to the Redwoods this summer or next…

Lolly – your bookshelf is the stuff of dreams. Well, maybe just my dreams, but still. Completely enchanted.

Hope you had a lovely, lovely weekend.

First off, you are an earthy Woman, not an earthy girl.

Secondly, I got this book The Golden Spruce from the library. I think you’ll like it.

I have just finished Jayne Eyre, I adored it. I am now doing literature for my studies so am going to be reading Wide Sargasso Sea next but I normally read anything although knitting does take up more of my time!

I have just begun reading _Women’s Work: The First 20,000 Years_ which I think you might like (if you haven’t already read it). I have learned a few things about weaving in the first two chapters alone

Before that I just read and enjoyed _Tom Bedlam_ and _Bearing the Body_, both new fiction.
