Can’t tell we have a love of reading that we try to encourage in the family can you?
This is some of Little Miss’ collection in the girls’ room.

Buck a Bag of Books!
The library had its yearly sale.
We made off like bandits.
Hard to resist $1 for filling a paper bag.
Any we don’t like? Trade the local little free libraries or book trading sites like book mooch. It’s quite the win-win.

Book Find
Redflare was released into a thrift store recently.
I’m really looking forward to what she decides to make from that Chinese cookbook.

Behold: The Cookbook
So I’m posting things a bit out of order since the fry bread pictures went up first, but here’s the cover of the cookbook that I got Redflare for Christmas.
She asked for it and has been quite happy. A few typos here or there, a couple of missing instructions, but fortunately she’s experienced and awesome enough at cooking to recover from those mishaps.

Christmas Reader
Don’t mind Little Miss. Post Christmas opening of things she was sure to dive right in to her books. 🙂

Embosser Time
I don’t think this could have landed on a better day.
My love, who also loves books, here on Valentine’s Day.
I got her a custom embosser for Christmas and she has been making good use out of it.

Thrift Store Book Score
It’s dangerous to go into a thrift store alone… here, take a box when you do.

Another Bookshelf?
Could we probably fill a small library at this point? Yes.
Do we care? No.
Books are super imortant in our family. This would be the collection after Redflare had me pack up mine since I don’t reread very often too.
Also, there are other bookshelves, so this is certainly not the only bookshelf handy. Getting another bookshelf though, that might be wise to do.

Book Find
On the drive home there was a house that the last weekend was having a garage sale.
Clearly this was a family that was moving. There was a sold sign in the front yard, a dumpster in the driveway, they were move purging.
There were also boxes in the front yard with books with a nice friendly “free” sign in front of them.
We walked away winners.
Sent Packing
No, Redflare and I aren’t having problems, but I did have to move my books off the bookshelf to make more room for the books she got for her birthday or with birthday money.
Especially after she reorganized the shelf.
In her defense, I don’t generally reread my books and she does, so she needs hers more readily available than I do.
