Thanks for cluing me in to the Echo Falls series.<br /><br />Also, I visited Joanne's Heart and Home blog...what a special vision she has! I loved it, just as you knew I would, and I'll need to leave her a meaningful comment as soon as I cool off from my bike ride on Lake Shore Drive in Chicago today. Where they also had the Chicago tri-athalon. What was I thinking to be out on such a jaunt?!Bellezza https://www.blogger.com/profile/18073864187188953633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-78708277356730530052010-08-29T13:52:54.382-04:002010-08-29T13:52:54.382-04:00Clair, you are so funny!

Regarding the Ball containers, I, too, ordered them online and then found them in the grocery store where the canning jars are located.<br /><br />I'm looking forward to spending some time with your book reviews as I am an avid reader!! <br /><br />My younger son and his wife are living in Massachusetts right now. They were married last September in Providence. I made several trips--my first to New England and am looking forward to spending more time in that part of the country.<br /><br />Best,<br />BonnieFrom the Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00789641912016566894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-63155484233321097252010-08-29T11:02:06.602-04:002010-08-29T11:02:06.602-04:00I'm so excited because I have Book one on my b...I'm so excited because I have Book one on my bookshelves at school.

On my Shelfari page, my "books I plan to read" list now numbers 267. Yes, that is two hundred and sixty-seven more books to read and you must bear the blame. Somebody has to. <br /><br />Let's just hope I live to a ripe old age, or that you stop recommending all of these wonderful books.clairzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12076402619649343527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-1420511760496028122010-08-28T13:15:34.849-04:002010-08-28T13:15:34.849-04:00Librarian, I know that I like to come to books wit...Librarian, I know that I like to come to books without knowing too much about them, so I try not to tell an awfully lot in my book reports.
