If anyone happens to come over to my blog right now, the home page is broken. I'm desperately trying to fix it. I may know boobs and babes, but not html!<BR/><BR/>And thanks for recommending these other books. I've been trying to figure out how to keep the vegetables from flying across the kitchen table and landing on the floor. These recipes might do the trick.Andiwww.mamaknowsbreast.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20266288.post-11610499137729631782007-10-07T10:25:50.309-05:002007-10-07T10:25:50.309-05:00Steph...I am going to pick up The Other Mom this weekend.

They seem pretty doable. If only I hadn't just spent most of our grocery money for the first half of the month...<BR/><BR/>I am reading a Jodi Picoult book, The Tenth Circle and I just finished Pride and Prejudice.

Two books that I've found on Amanda's blog at The Rowdy Pea are "Healthy Cooking for Kids" by Shelly Null and Homemaking As a Social Art by Veronika van Duin. The cookbook is AMAZING and just stuffed with recipes that are easy, super nutritious, tasty and welcome little hands in the preparation. The homemaking book seems very far removed from something I would be interested in but the fact of the matter is that I am a homemaker and I want to create a safe, comforting, special place for my family. I never would have found either book without a blog rec and I am so excited that you recommended some great titles- I am checking out the bfing book for sure!<BR/><BR/>I am also reading Animal, Vegetable, Mineral by Barbara Kingsolver and The Not So Big Life: Making Room For What Really Matters by Sarah Susanka. <BR/><BR/>Steph, you could also start a book club via the blog. My two best friends and I have a tiny three person book and recipe group going and each month we choose to all read the same book (we rotate who chooses) and we all make the same recipes for a meal. It has been really fun and keeps us connected in a special way since we are all at a very different place in our lives. I'm sure you would get a lot of interest. It could be as simple as choosing a book and setting a read by date and then posting questions on your blog on that date that other bloggers would answer about the book on their own blogs. I would love to join in something like that! <BR/><BR/>Best,<BR/><BR/>JJesshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09264059472790843992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20266288.post-23894982669891110172007-10-05T20:52:54.287-05:002007-10-05T20:52:54.287-05:00Thanks for the suggestions!
