Yarn Along {Johnny Chuck}

My books and yarn!

While Matthew and Renae were gone to Haiti, {see Monday’s post if you missed it} I pulled out the Thornton W. Burgess books and Tucker and I read The Adventures of Reddy Fox and The Adventures of Johnny Chuck.

My Grandmother had the Old Mother West Wind books in hardback when I was growing up and we loved reading them.

The Merry Little Breezes ~ Peter Rabbit ~ Bobby Coon ~ Jimmy Skunk ~ Jolly Round Red Mr. Sun ~ The Purple Hills ~

And this quote from one of the books ~

Home, no matter where it be,
Or be it big or small,
Is just the one place in the world
That dearest is of all.

~ Thornton W. Burgess

I love these stories and the way they enchant and captivate all the while instilling good character lessons and manners and life lessons.

My dishcloths and yarn are all about pink right now. I’ve added Valentine touches around my house and I’m just in pink mode! It’s fun! And cheery. Always good things.

I’ve wanted to read For the Love by Jen Hatmaker for a while. I also discovered a bit back that Richard Paul Evans had a new book, The Mistletoe Inn, and I put it on my to-read list.

I requested both from the library and was glad when the text came across my phone screen that my requested items were available to pick up!

I finished reading Flash last week. It is most-certainly-definitely on my favorite book list. It was just wonderful.

What are you reading or working on?

And another great quote from a very great character to end on!

Sage advice from Winnie-the-Pooh ~

“When you go after honey with a balloon, the great thing is not to let the bees know you’re coming.”

Oh, and there is a flexi giveaway in yesterday’s post! Go over and enter if you haven’t!
