I'll have to check out "The Magic Apple Tree" and the Victoria book. They seem to be the books I always cherish to read over and over again.<br />Quick Note to Sheila and Carol: The Country Diary of an Edwardian Lady is one of my fav books which I bought for $3o U.S. dollars. This past summer I found another for $3 dollars and then the book store had a whole skid of new editions for $10. Anyways I have three. I also found one for a quarter {a soft cover edition}. And again last summer I found Edith Holden's story at a flea market for $7; a great read of the English countryside. As for the movie “Holiday”; you’re right Carol to say her cottage would be a dream to live in. I just seen trailers and heard about it and wanted to see it but had no one to see it with. Now I'll go on my own if I can't find anyone to accompany me.<br /><br /><br />Annabelle ~^..^~ xoAnnabellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16866075790514568788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20138197.post-42207383515995449972007-01-18T13:02:00.000+00:002007-01-18T13:02:00.000+00:00a good book is always worth waiting for well done ...a good book is always worth waiting for well done to you I am sure you are enjoying it all cozy in your home while winter rushes around outside.<br /><br />we are very hot here and getting hotter.<br />joy to you tody.

I am intrigued!<br /><br />Thank you for sharing you library adventure. I sure have been enjoying the Paperback Swap (paperbackswap.com).

The Magic Apple Tree book sounds wonderful. Last Saturday I saw the movie "The Holiday" a real lovely film which partly played in Surrey England and Kate Winslet owned such a gorgeous and cosy cottage there in one dream of an English country side village I could have packed all my stuff and just move in there! xoxBoxwood Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09227394141707792808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20138197.post-41129155094989659012007-01-17T05:57:00.000+00:002007-01-17T05:57:00.000+00:00Ah, Marion, you will also quilt?

Or at the sewing machine working on a beautiful craft item. <br />Do you still have George? I haven't seen any mention of him for a while. I do hope all is well and that he's still providing you with good company.<br />Rain here again today, but colder temps.

Long may you have your library to enjoy. All too often, small local libraries are threatened in the name of "efficiency".<br /><br />Ive never lost the joy of wandering around the shelves, even though I am not working at "the coal face" any more, but behind a desk and a library website - so you can reserve books without even leaving your blogging space at home!Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04743788129921238096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20138197.post-62578399223011411622007-01-14T18:12:00.000+00:002007-01-14T18:12:00.000+00:00I love visiting the library - you never know what ...I love visiting the library - you never know what great books you might find.mrspaohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04385625296306389489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20138197.post-13498789163660418242007-01-14T18:04:00.000+00:002007-01-14T18:04:00.000+00:00Looks like a perfect way to spend a cozy afternoon...Looks like a perfect way to spend a cozy afternoon!
