I’ve already read and enjoyed two Ilona Andrews series ( Kate Daniels and Hidden Legacy), but whilst I enjoyed the ideas behind Clean Sweep, and it whiled the football that was being watch in our house, I must admit that I found it ever so slightly lacking.ĭina runs a normal looking B&B in a small town, but it’s one with a difference. In the midst of some heavy duty non-fiction reading, I found myself jonesing for some nice and easy brain candy, so when Clean Sweep came up on offer on my kindle, I jumped at it. ![]() I actually read this a few weeks ago, but since then I’ve found myself so consumed by Game of Thrones that I’ve neglected pretty much everything else in my life. ![]() 5/21/2023 0 Comments When we were young aa milne![]() cummings Edward Hirsch Ellen Bass Emily Dickinson Faith Shearin Galway Kinnell Garrison Keillor Glen Hansard Gratitude grief J.D. ![]() ![]() Join 4,927 other subscribers Care to read through the archives?

Once they plateau there’s fighting in the captain’s tower. As McCartney points out, when a band are on the rise all the members’ energies are consumed by the climb. In those days there were no bands with 40 years on the clock and therefore we had no expectation that this lot would continue. For 60s kids like me, it was neither a shock nor a mystery. The first half of Rachel’s book is spent anatomising the discontents that set in once their manager Brian Epstein died in 1967, feelings that the four of them seemingly had to explain in every single interview they did for the rest of their lives. They know more about their story than I do because they’ve read a lot of the books. Writers such as Daniel Rachel may be adults today but they’re nonetheless too young to have experienced the Beatles in real time. F or a baby boomer like me, 12 years old when the Beatles broke through in 1962 and a mere 19 when they called it a day in 1969, it’s curious to watch the love objects of my teenage years still being pored over by grownups more than 50 years later. ![]() ![]() ![]() Vintage Disney Collectibles Collectors Weekly By Chapter 2, Haller has spent more than a month in the Twin Towers Correctional Facility in downtown L.A., offering pro bono legal advice to other.

We used to pick out the long ones…squashes whose tops were white or yellow and the bottoms of some other color. When the squashes were brought in from the field, the little girls would go to the pile and pick out squashes that were proper for dolls. “ Little girls of 10 and 11 years of age used to make dolls of squashes. Reading this book brings back a lost world, especially life beyond the garden rows: When the first green corn was plucked, the women and children would gather, breaking off a piece of stalk, sucking the sweet juice - “ merely for a little taste of sweets in the field.” You get a sense of what a social occasion gardening was. In this book (since retitled Buffalo Bird Woman’s Garden: Agriculture and the Hidatsa Indians), Maxidiwiac (as she was known in Hidatsa) talks of field preparation, planting, harvesting and storage - along with the songs and ceremonies that lead to a good crop. Wilson published Agriculture of the Hidatsa Indians, a faithful transcript of his interviews with this remarkable woman. She grew up to be an expert gardener of the Hidatsa tribe, growing corn, beans, squash, and sunflowers along the fertile bottomlands of the Missouri River. Buffalo Bird Woman was born in an earth lodge in 1839, along the Knife River, in present day North Dakota. ![]() |
