hats off to gutenberg

you know what i'm so glad about and grateful for? the invention of the printing press. i mean, what would i have done with myself before books were so accessible? (i do have some romantic ideas about having been a druidess, but really, what are the chances? more than likely i would have been some kind of under-servant in charge of the pigs.)

i think a good book is one of the things that makes life worth living. these are some of the books i have been reveling in or am planning to revel in this year:


what about you? what books are you delighting in?

Just starting to dig into Hinds feet on High Places, thanks to you and Juli for the recommendation! Happy reading. I look forward to the day when mothering allows a tiny bit more room for reading! (not that I want to rush away these precious time intensive days)
