First, the Folk magazine has beautiful photos in it. It focuses on artisans, enjoyable stories, crafts, recipes and more. I only have a few more pages to read. It's one that you can read from beginning to end, but with less advertising than you'd find in other magazines.
Pepper in Her Pie, Book 1
Amish Pioneer Series
By Mrs. Cleon Martin
This series is written for teens, but if you enjoy reading Pioneer stories, you'll enjoy this book. An Amish couple with a new baby ventures from Indiana to the flat lands of Kansas. The characters and places are fiction, but the actual events are based on true acts. I located the series at my local library. Your library may very well have it too.
The title of the book refers to a lesson taught in the story. If you enjoy the Little House series, you'll enjoy this book. I'm waiting for the next two from our library.
Illness Update:
Two daughters now have the flu. I've been sleeping until 10:30am to 11:15am. Not on purpose either. I hope Hubby is up to bringing us home more supplies.
