Unfortunately, we live in a food desert, with very few stores, the nearest Walmart is an hour away. So, we make do. And that means a lot of Amazon. It's things we need, or want, but some purchases are better than others.

Books I'm currently reading, have read, or are long time favorites! Every book on this list is carefully curated for my reading tastes, but hopefully you'll enjoy them all too!

Things on Temu that I've actually purchased, and am still using, and heartily endorse.

We're desperate for this year to get a garden going, the last few years, we've tried but with little success. We know it can be done, but the Adirondack climate has a few special rules, and we're going to try again using some new methods and tools! Mostly wish list currently, but as we buy items, will we note that in descriptions!

We all have hobbies and some of us have many many hobbies. One of mine is making shoes. I'm always finding supplies and patterns that I either like, or would like to try out. I mostly work with fabric, so there won't be much here for leatherworking, but you can generally apply the same principles for a good shoe.

These are miniature kits that I'd love to have, and will try to get as I can, because I love working on these!
