Book Club - March 27th

Hennie Comfort is eighty-six and has lived in the mountains of Middle Swan, Colorado since before it was Colorado. Nit Spindle is just seventeen and newly married. She and her husband have just moved to the high country in search of work. It's 1936 and the depression has ravaged the country and Nit and her husband have suffered greatly. Hennie notices the young woman loitering near the old sign outside of her house that promises "Prayers For Sale". Hennie doesn't sell prayers, never has, but there's something about the young woman that she's drawn to. The harsh conditions of life that each have endured create an instant bond and an unlikely friendship is formed, one in which the deepest of hardships are shared and the darkest of secrets are confessed.

Sandra Dallas has created an unforgettable tale of a friendship between two women, one with surprising twists and turns, and one that is ultimately a revelation of the finest parts of the human spirit.

Quotes from the book.

June's Book

Cassia has always trusted the Society to make the right choices for her: what to read, what to watch, what to believe. So when Xander's face appears on-screen at her Matching ceremony, Cassia knows he is her ideal mate . . . until she sees Ky Markham's face flash for an instant before the screen fades to black. The Society tells her it's a glitch, a rare malfunction, and that she should focus on the happy life she's destined to lead with Xander. But Cassia can't stop thinking about Ky, and as they slowly fall in love, Cassia begins to doubt the Society's infallibility and is faced with an impossible choice: between Xander and Ky, between the only life she's known and a path that no one else has dared to follow.

Book Club on May 24th

In Island of the Blue Dolphins, O’Dell tells the story of Karana, a Native American girl who survives alone on a wild, isolated island for many years in the mid-1800s. Karana is tested by her environment, even though it is a familiar one. The story is also about what it means to be human: Karana shows emotional and moral courage as she copes with a terrible loss. In the words of one reader, the novel is
“A sad story, yes; but the sadness . . . is of a singularly inspiring kind.”

The Last Full Measure by Jeff Shaara.

"The Last Full Measure is more than another historical novel. It is rooted in history, but its strength is the element of humanity flowing through its characters... The book is compelling, easy to read, well researched and written, and thought-provoking... In short, it is everything that a reader could ask for."

Planning Meals

I have been thinking lately about our last class on Provident Living and wondering how I can save money. The one thing I thought I could do, is plan more before I go shopping. Thus, I have made a few sheets that I thought might be helpful to others in doing the same thing. The PDF below is to print off and use. (Email me if you want the excel version, so you can fill it in on the computer.) If you have any problems, let me know.
