White Sand and Wild Strawberries

الوصف

The joy and beauty of our 'everydays' is captured in poetry with simplicity, insight, and humor. Memories and musings include childhood's summer days on the white sand beaches of Minnesota, Grandma's kitchen, an interesting, question-filled walk with a grandchild, anticipation of a blizzard, the sights, sounds and smells of the county fair, and more. From the book: "The Recipe Card -- The card has been in my recipe box for over 40 years. Written in pencil on a 3x5 white index card Blotched with grease and stained with vanilla. I know the recipe by heart, Wouldn't even need to take it out of the box. But when I do, she is standing right beside me, Her short, plump, grandmotherly self Always most comfortable when baking. I could frame it But then it would be a piece of art Instead of a deliciously warm memory of childhood."
