Reading Not Stitching
Sad to say there was no time for stitching this week. I had a business trip to Atlanta most of the week - at least it was warm there (it was only in the high 40s here in Chicago - brrr). I rarely take stitching with me when I travel on business, as I always think I will have the opportunity to stitch but I've learned that it just never happens. I did start reading The Story of Edgar Sawtelle on my Kindle, and so far I'm enjoying it. When I got home, I picked up a book that my friend Amy recommended - The School of Essential Ingredients.
I loved this book - it's about a cooking class taught by a restaurant owner and how the act of cooking with others affects all of their lives. It's worth it for the descriptions of the food alone, but I also really enjoyed the story. It's a fast read (I started it late last night and finished it by noon today) and it's thoroughly enjoyable if you like to cook or eat.

That sounds like an interesting read! I'll have to add it to my wish list. Do you like your Kindle? I love mine! :D
ReplyDeleteHi Margaret - yes I do like my Kindle! My husband got it for me a couple of years ago when we were planning a long vacation - I love the fact that I can take as many books with me as I want! I do still buy some books, and I do still use the library, but I am putting more and more on my Kindle as well.
ReplyDeleteI'll add that to my wish list! I am interested to hear what you think of Edgar Sawtelle, too. I've heard mixed reviews.
ReplyDeleteSo glad that you enjoyed the book!!
