You may already know this, a year at the hemlock inn is not long enough.

I just bought my daughter the whole Anne of Green Gables series today. I can’t wait to retread it with her! And I love reading and rereading EVERY post of yours. You are an inspiration, on many levels.

Many years ago as a small girl I came upon one of my mother’s books, Anne of Green Gables, published in 1923 and given to her for Christmas in 1926. I have 4 of the early books that she was given. They are my favorite books and I have read them many times. I’m looking forward to reading them to my new little grand daughter. After your post, I think I might just pull them off the shelf and dive into them again.

I just happened upon your excellent blog. As I randomly read many of your posts, I keep saying to myself, “I love this girl!” You are an inspiration and a genuine delight! Thank you for sharing….

The Anne of Green Gables books are among my very favorites! I’ve reread the series a couple of times in the past couple of years, and they never fail to encourage and delight me!

This is so fun to read. I too have an old, tattered recipe book from my grandmother. I have yet to use any of the recipes, but I can’t part with it or hide it in a box. Some of the recipes humor me, and some of them surprise me. The reason I keep it standing tall with my tried and true, cookbook collection though, is because it still smells like her and like her house; which carries special meaning to me right now as she has recently been moved to a care center.
