My computer went in to be "fixed" and came back with problems with the printer it never had before it left here! you will love Henry Beston's Herbs and the Earth - MM sent me that in the summer and it is an absolute delight.<br /><br />MM - I shall do that in the morning (or in the middle of the night if I have another one like last night when I was awake for two hours again.) I have a little pile of books here for you, but fear they will have to be sent singly. You will just LOVE The Piddle Valley book (I used to live there, in Dorset).<br /><br />Nan - Welcome back. I did start trying to get in touch with all my old followers, but then had computer problems and this horrid bug. Glad you found me again, and know what C&C is now too. Now that I've changed the picture!Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-44223678916687262682009-10-09T08:14:29.621-07:002009-10-09T08:14:29.621-07:00Oh, The Outermost House is a wonderful, wonderful ...Oh, The Outermost House is a wonderful, wonderful book. It will transport you. What a nice, nice gift and so thoughtful of M'sM. I just yesterday got to your new blog. I wonder what happened in the blog fiasco. After all this time, I've finally looked up 'codlins and cream' and found it is a plant, which I'm sure I read on your blog ages ago and promptly forgot. Anyhow, it has a beautiful flower.Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-87598200715202642202009-10-09T07:45:37.616-07:002009-10-09T07:45:37.616-07:00Dear Friend--you are needing to be cherished and p...Dear Friend--you are needing to be cherished and pampered and since we can't drop in with a kettle of chicken soup, books are fine "be well" messangers. I am delighted that Henry Beston is being passed around--he was not a prolific writer, but every sentence he wrote was beautifully crafted. Do go to the Henry Beston website--photos of him and Elizabeth Coatsworth, Chimney Farm, general information.<br />Yes, I think I did labor long hours at the quilt shop for the benefit of the postal service--I sent out your box of books, and two largish cartons with quilts. The "fat quarter" of fabric was my inspiration to keep the smaller paperbacks and the CD's from shuttling in the box.<br />We hope you are well soon and will be posting pix of the baked goodies!Morning's Minionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01912356455981434029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-71293816794921775802009-10-09T07:17:37.632-07:002009-10-09T07:17:37.632-07:00Do hope you are feeling better, there seem to be a...Do hope you are feeling better, there seem to be a lot of people with ailments of various kinds. Your letter arrived and will be answered as soon as I have scaled Mount Washmore! Looking at the books that Sharon sent you I noticed the one by Henry Beston, oddly enough I brought a book back from the US by him called Herbs and the Earth! I see a swap ahead of us! Take care.Rowanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13679130612798888266noreply@blogger.com
