A Change In The Year


A Change In The Year

It is the first mild day of March
Each minute is sweeter that before,
The redbreast sings from the tall larch
That stands beside our door.

There is a blessing in the air, 
Which seems a sense of joy to yield
To the bare trees and mountains bare;
And grass in the green field.
--William Wordsworth

I recently got me a NookColor and I have rediscovered the joys of reading. For many years while my deceased husband was ill, I found I couldn't concentrate long enough to stick with a book! But since I got the NC I've had such fun curling up in my favorite chair to read a book, magazine or even a blog.  What fun.  I can even read in bed with the lights off and not disturb my hubby.  He, too, has been reading a lot on his NC (yes, we each had to have one!)

My current read is "My Life In France" by Julia Child. It is one of the two books the film Julie/Julia was based on.  I loved the film, but quite honestly, it was the JULIA part I really loved the best--they could have left the JULIE part out!

The book was published after Julia passed away, but it is written like she spoke and it when I read, I can hear her voice, still. I miss you Julia!

PS...it was "my" network--the one I work for, (PBS - WGBH in Boston) that first ran her television show, The French Chef! I feel kindred there.

As I mentioned above,  my NookColor is also fun for discovering and reading blogs. My friend longtime friend, Jeanne, has been blogging for many years. She has the nicest thingsto share.
