I have a bookshelf right next to my computer. It should be filled with books like herbs, gardening, child rearing, a bible, a concordance, well you get the idea. However it’s also part of the kitchen counter therefore it has cookbooks, and children’s books on it. Oh yeah and SOME health books.
I always love it when people take pictures next to books. I read teh titles. So I thought i would just take a picture of the bookcase. Come on, you know you wanna see what books I have…

The bottom bookshelf is entirely children’s books. I am so proud of my small collection picked up from thrift stores, yard sales, and being a Usborne Consulant always helps develope that excellent taste in books.
Then there are the times we will pull out the special books and Emma and I will look them over. Today happened to be antique picture books. You know the kind that change pictures with the twist of the wrist.

I am so proud of myself. Today I *had* to condense our books. The shelf was just too full and overflowing. I managed to even make room for a few more. Duplicates left.
Sigh… our own personal library!

Wow!!! I love books and admire the antiques. I’ve never seen any like them. They are fantastic.
Funny, I’ve just returned from holidays and while on holidays I found a stray box of books on the side of the road with numerous cook books in it. Love, it was. I rounded them up and took the rest to the local library.
I always wonder how people can throw perfectly good books out.
