You were on my mind again today (the book is in the mail - should be there Monday) so I swung back around just to see one more time. Lo and Behold! So, welcome back. I have read through your March posts and am leaving a comment on this one because I thought you might be interested to know that Jack Lazor and family of Butterworks Farm in Westfield have been renting our farmland for years and their Brown Swiss cows eat organic corn grown on our place. So, if you've been using the cream ... another little connection. Martha Stewart featured it on her show some years ago. It's the good stuff. Welcome back!

I hope to read all her books this year. I've read maybe three, and so loved them. I wrote about two before I 'knew' you so if you'd like to read the posts, they are here:<br />http://lettersfromahillfarm.blogspot.com/2010/02/unsuitable-attachment-by-barbara-pym.html<br />http://lettersfromahillfarm.blogspot.com/2007/10/book-reportjane-and-prudence.html<br /><br />I didn't know that Miss Read was a fan. I love hearing things like this. <br />I will look into the SH book. I haven't read her.

Are you a fan of hers? I've just read her book 'Some Tame Gazelle' - her first I believe. I enjoyed it very much. I read it because I am such a fan of Miss Read and Miss Read was herself a fan of Barbara Pym. Since I worked for the Church for 5 years I can identify with the lives of the clergy somewhat and found Barbara's take on it very interesting. I intend to read more of her work. I am currently reading 'Glittering Images' by Susan Howatch. It is the first book in the Starbridge series. Are you familiar with those? If not, may I suggest you give the series a try.Stella Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06699491230987143490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-35867758428757257312013-03-19T09:40:02.176-04:002013-03-19T09:40:02.176-04:00Oh yes, I miss buttermilk, and to have two differe...Oh yes, I miss buttermilk, and to have two different "real" buttermilks nearby, heaven.
