library list


one.  Stalking the healthful herbs, by: Euell Gibbons.  Still on my quest in natural and herbal foraging.  My soul wants to know so much more.  I have read Stalking the wild asparagus by Euell Gibbons and really enjoyed learning about wild edibles and the commentary stories so much so that I sought out more books by him.

two.  Daily Rituals, by: Mason Currey.  I have been interested lately in how actual artists (of which I do not consider myself) stay motivated in their creativity.  Maybe it's my own short attention span and just maybe I will pick a new healthy creative habit.

three.  1, by: The Beatles.  Mainly because the Love Me Do intro tickled my ears the other day and I want more!

four.  Muscle Shoals.  I really, really liked this documentary on Muscle Shoals and all the music and artists and stories began.  Now I understand where the line in Sweet Home Alabama "now Muscle Shoals has got the Swampers... and they've been known to pick a song or two" comes from!

five.  The Birds movie, Alfred Hitchcock.  I've never seen it.  I hope I don't change my opinion on my love of birds.

literally on the library hold shelf

When I say, literally on the library hold shelf, it is precisely what I mean.  With the Davidson County library system, of which I am proudly a part of, I can go online and request just about anything from books to cds to movies.  I go once a week and pick up my items on the hold shelf and happily skip out the door.  Here is where I share what I'm waiting on and hopefully will have in my hands by the end of the week.  It's pretty much a constant cycle.  

1.  Honestly... I am struggling with what to say on why I want to read this book.  I do want to read her insight into healthier living and eco-friendly lifestyle.  Hopefully when I get the book I will have my answer .

2.  I have been on a bread baking craze the last few weeks.  I have never really had the urge to want to bake bread before and frankly using yeast always made me feel like it was setting me up for failure.  There's just something about the smell of fresh baked bread in the house that I adore.

3.  Um Hello...??? Party in the USA is one of my favorite all time songs!  It's my ringtone for crying out loud.  Still.... yes I know.  I still want to hear the whole cd.

4.  Not that I am going all vegetarian, that's impossible for me.  I love meat!  But some good vegetarian recipes in my back pocket doesn't hurt either.  The black beans and rice are already startin to get old!

Literally on the library hold shelf for me

My library is awesome.  I can get books, cds, dvds... it's very cool.  I can log on and request just about anything they have and when it is available, some sweet little library fairie makes it appear on the shelf at the location nearest me.  Here are a few things I am waiting on right now.
