My first post was about Thanksgiving as it is my favorite holiday.<BR/><BR/>This is a pass on as I thought (if you already don't know) that Women's Voices for Change (dot) org has a feature and video on Sarah Jowell. I immediately thought of you!<BR/><BR/>Thank you for sharing books, authors, food, weather and the calm points of life. When I read your blog (which I do daily - days you do not post are either follow a link or archive) I am reminded to take time to "smell the roses". I find it so very peaceful at your house.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-3602829337030517292008-12-05T12:54:00.000-05:002008-12-05T12:54:00.000-05:00I'm in need of restful quiet at the moment.

I think maybe I'm an old soul too. I need to recharge my batteries for Sunday when we all meet up again and meet the newest member of the family - my great niece who is just 3 weeks old. Not much blogging for me this weekend.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-25634109471523778962008-12-05T12:48:00.000-05:002008-12-05T12:48:00.000-05:00I loved this Nan.

I think I am probably 60:40 loner:joiner and would hate to be without the stimulus of company, but can only enjoy it if I get a fair amount of time to myself.<BR/>Interesting recommendation for a book. I shall look out for it. I wonder if it is available in the UK.Elizabeth Musgravehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09473705107636868753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-2945003847801249702008-12-04T22:41:00.000-05:002008-12-04T22:41:00.000-05:00I love "two parts loner, one part joiner".I love "two parts loner, one part joiner".Susan Moorheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06744130110550636177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-27250469431018000862008-12-04T18:57:00.000-05:002008-12-04T18:57:00.000-05:00Hi Nan,I'm new to your blog, but an old soul mysel...Hi Nan,<BR/><BR/>I'm new to your blog, but an old soul myself. There is something very calming about your writing style and the topics you choose to chat about. Even more importantly, you love P.G. Wodehouse! Anyone who loves "Plum" is a friend of mine. I also noticed that you enjoyed "The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society" which has become one of my favorite books. So - I'm hooked. Thank you!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16403245010564338333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-77544262296414215112008-12-04T17:02:00.000-05:002008-12-04T17:02:00.000-05:00I am crazy for Sarah!

I'm always looking for a new author and you have passed on some lovely ones (as well as some great recipes!). <BR/>I also fall into the 'two parts loner, one part joiner' category and have also identified with Sarah Vowell and her writing style. I think that you will really enjoy "Assasination Vacation" and "The Wordy Shipmates" as well. Thanks so much for such a wonderful place to visit!Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06397742748387408175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-22551487222203572682008-12-04T13:50:00.000-05:002008-12-04T13:50:00.000-05:00A few weeks ago I put The Wordy Shipmates on a Fri...A few weeks ago I put The Wordy Shipmates on a Friday Finds post. I've never read/listened to anything by Vowell but I was intrigued. I'm so glad to know that you enjoyed this book - it makes me think I will truly love her writing as well!Heather J. @ TLC Book Tourshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10474181812740579350noreply@blogger.com
