One of those days when one is grateful for snow and fragrant evergreens... The daylight world is a study in gray this week, and the sky above our heads has a sodden morose demeanor unredeemed by even a moment of sunlight.
On this morning's walk, I passed by the local thrift shop and noticed a pristine hardcover copy of Wendell Berry's gorgeous Jayber Crow for mere pennies, and the happening is a redemption of sorts. This day is being spent curled up in a comfortable corner of the overstuffed sofa with several pots of Darjeeling tea, a reading lamp and one of my favorite books ever - all thoughts of the gray world beyond the window have been banished. Oh, to be able to write like this in my next life...

What a lovely cozy day.
Embarrassed to admit that I am not familiar with this title...but also thank you for this gift of knowledge.
Cate, not familiar with this book.
One Woman has a desire - oh to be able to write like Cate in my next life....
This sounds positively snooky (my daughters word for cozy). I have a stack of books too. Need to kick a few people out of the house first so I have some peace and quiet. Soon.
