I read the back and it seemed like an interesting read to me. I suggested it to my book club, and it ended up being the one we decided on for this month. One … [Read more...]

There are many reasons we … [Read more...]

Yes, there is E. coli here in my water! I live in Kent County, Rhode Island and we just got a message to boil the water due to E. coli in the water. Word spread through Facebook, Twitter, TV, and word of mouth within hours of the announcement. I went to the store to get some bottled water (just in case), and apparently everyone else in town had the same idea! Luckily, we got some before it sold out! We are going to have to spend about 3-5 days … [Read more...]
