Wormwood by G P Taylor

This book is so exciting, I could not wait to finish it before I recommend it. As a homeschool mom I'm always on the lookout for exciting books to capture my childrens ( and my own) attention. This is like a combination of Lord of the Rings, Narnia, and This Present Darkness. I think anyone from the age of 8 to 100 would enjoy this immensely.

A Glimpse of Heaven

The foundations of the wall were adorned with all kinds of precious stones: The first foundation was jasper, the second sapphire, the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald, the fifth sardonyx, the sixth sardius, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, and the twelth amethyst. The twelve gates were twelve pearls: each individual gate was of one pearl. And the street of the city was pure gold, like transparent glass. Rev.21: 19-21

Change of plans

Photographing my new designs was on my agenda this afternoon but to my dismay as soon as I went outside to set up raindrops began to fall. So blogging seemed to be the next best idea as I wanted to share with you some great finds on Etsy.com. Recently I discovered Cathleen's Tearoom and their wonderful selection of teas in Fletcher NC. Now sipping tea is a new family traditon, thanks to a search for tea at Etsy.com, I found Marsha's tantalizing teas at http://TeaForAllReasons.etsy.com Now we can have a cup at home any time. Our favs include, Sugar Plums, Buckingham Palace, Hampton Holiday, and Snowflake. There is something so special about sharing a cup of tea with a friend. Another great find from Etsy is Lauren's http://DressGreen.etsy.com where you'll find wonderful skin care. I'm currently enjoying "undressed Body Cream" and "Calming & Clarifying Green Tea Facial Cream". Very soothing for my dry sensitive skin.
