Top Ten Books Santa Can Bring Me
Brought to you by The Broke and the Bookish
You all are about to see how nerdy I am. ;) I prefer to own books like this, that I can keep and read and use. I only buy books that I plan on using or are by my favorite authors these days.
Expressive Photography - The Shutter Sisters Guide to Shooting from the Heart: I am a quasi-professional photographer. Completely untrained. I would love to learn more.
Night Photography: Finding Your Way in the Dark: Ditto what I said above.
The Write-Brain Workbook - Bonnie Neubauer: I used to write all the time, and I seem to have lost my way and ability.
Canning for a New Generation by Liana Krissoff: I am all into this kind of thing.
Homegrown and Handmade by Deborah Niemann: Yep, more of this kind of thing.
How to Sew a Button and Other Nifty Things Your Grandma Knew by Erin Bried: I don't know how to do this sort of thing.
Birds of Michigan by Ted Black and Gregory Kennedy: I love birds.
The Homemade Pantry: I love this idea and want to get started!
Twelve by Twelve by William Powers: So fascinating. And a little bit like Little House?
Fairy Tales from the Brothers Grimm by Phillip Pullman: Because I love fairy tales.
There are some real lovelies here. I'm very interested in that small house book. Someday, that's gonna be me!
ReplyDeleteWouldn't that be so cool! I would love it!
DeleteI'm clueless when it comes to canning but that book makes me want to start. Such lovely photography. Great choices!
ReplyDeleteI don't know too much either, but I want to know more. I usually make jam with my uncle every year, but it would be nice to can other stuff too. :)
DeleteGreat choices! I think Canning for a New Generation and The Homemade Pantry would make my life loads better - I will definitely add these to my Christmas list!
ReplyDeleteI think The Homemade Pantry is such a cool concept!
DeleteHow to Sew a Button! That looks GREAT and I'd love to find that under my tree on Christmas morn. I love your list :)
ReplyDeleteIt would be nice to know how to sew a button. Right now I have to defer to my husband's prowess at sewing. Lol. :)
DeleteMy mom and her whole family are brilliant sewers...I didn't learn and I sure wish I had!
DeleteInteresting lists. If I'm not wishing for fiction books, I'm craving cookbooks. I recently got Gordon Ramsey's Family Fair and can't wait to try some recipes out.
ReplyDeleteI love Gordon Ramsey! He kind of scares me, but he obviously knows what he is doing! I will have to look that book up. :)
DeleteOh, those are all a lot of fun. I don't tend to read any non-fiction, but I do think that canning one looks interesting. That's one thing that I could see myself getting into.
ReplyDeleteMy uncle got me started- we made pomegranate jam once, and now I want to jam everything. Lol.
DeleteIf you get those cookbooks, I'd love the know what you think of them. I've been pondering the Food in Jars one
ReplyDeleteI love the Food in Jars website! I will definitely review them if I get them. :)
DeleteI really like the first two photography books. I'm untrained as well and I just take pictures in my free time, so yea!
