books - our friends

stopped in the salvation army the other day to donate some things and of course had to look around.  "isn't that a bit like taking one step forward and two steps back?" i thought to myself.  "we are trying to move, you know,"  i muttered, silently, irritably.

but i ask you, can you resist shelves upon shelves of books?

i only brought home a small stack.  ok, maybe it was a little bit bigger than small.  but here's how i'm rationalizing this, once i finish them i will pass them on.  i think that makes it all better.

here's one particular score i'm thrilled about.

 

isn't this just a beautiful cookbook?  look at the size of it!  can not wait till cucumbers are in to try this recipe.

and here's a happy father's day to all the dads out there, including mine.
miss you.
