Anna, Under the Tuscan Sun was a great book. I enjoyed the movie very much. You kind of get lost in it and you become part of it. I loved the workers who helped her get the house back in shape. W&W, I LOVE Paula Deen. I want to be her! A couple of years ago, my husband took me to Savannah and we had dinner at her restaurant. It was a lovely evening. Food was incredible--- I think I wattled out of there! When Len can travel (soon!), that would be a great trip for you two. I like her cookbooks because they are real foods we all like. Twirl, one summer I read Gone With the Wind and Hawaii. I think they were the biggest books on the shelf! Maybe Gone With the Wind isn't a good idea right now----Ike might think you want him to take you with him when he blows thru!  |

I like watching Paula's show but man she eats some unhealthy stuff. I think they sound delicious but way too many calories for me.

I just finished reading Henry and Mudge by Cynthia Rylant. It got rave reviews from both of my second grade classes. If you have an English mastiff it is the cutest story. I want that type of dog just so I can name him Mudge. My husband's name is Henry.
Next week we will be reading, Henry and Mudge and the Green Time, Henry and Mudge and the Careful Cousin, Henry and Mudge and the Wild Goose Chase.. and the list goes on.
Then we will finish our Henry and Mudge unit with a Henry and Mudge party. Maybe I can get a parent to make dog-bone shaped cookies or something.
Once school starts, I do not have much time for "adult" books.

I just finished "The Alchemist", by Paulo Coelho.
Don't know if it has been mentioned here before, but it is a wonderful discovery.Glad I read it.
Very philosophical and contemplative. About a boy searching for his "Personal Legend" and the journey he takes to achieve it.
