So I read this book "Rick and Bubba's Big Honkin' book of GRUB" written by Rick Burgess and Bill "Bubba" Bussey. Yea... Well I can say that there was never a more true book out there. They are not into dieting. As they say in the book "there's a reason the first three letters of the word diet are d-i-e." Isn't that the truth?! I LOVE this book there is nothing more down home than "Spam 'n' Taters". I love the "Top Tens", especially the "Top Ten Reasons Why There Will Be Potluck In Heaven"! These finger lickin' recipes will make your mouth water. This book is country eating for dummies guide. The commentary is hilarious and dead on. The recipes are some that you wouldn't even be able to pry out of your Granny. This book is the best recipe book I have EVER read!

Just got a book from Booksneeze. Its a children's book called "The flowering Cross" by Beth Ryan. Its a beautiful illustration of how God uses the weak to lead the strong. I was in tears by the end of the book. I will use it in my preschool class to illustrate Easter in a language that they'll understand. Its a story about a little girl that leads a grumpy old man to the lord. It will touch your heart. At the end of the book it even shows you how to build your own flowering cross. I want two of those. All in all, I love, love, love it!

66 Love Letters from God by Dr. Larry Crab

I just finished the book 66 Love Letters by Dr. Larry Crab. I really enjoyed it. I have always read my bible but I have to admit sometimes I could fall short of getting the meaning out of it. This is a really easy to follow guide. I needed God these last couple of weeks more than ever after losing my mother unexpectedly. To hear his words put into a letter just for me helped me to feel closer to him and that is what I am always searching for, a way to be closer to our heavenly father. This is one that I will reread a hundred times. That I can derive from what I was missing before.
