Last year was my first year to try to garden organically, and it didn't work out too well. But this year I actually know what I'm doing! I would definatly recommend it!
The book devotes 100 pages to growing fruits. Learn how to make an aphid trap out of a milk jug or how to propagate berry plants and fruit trees. There are detailed care and maintenance write-ups on 12 of the most common fruits & berries.
The Herb section talks about controlling invasive herbs, companion planting, and how to perform a technique called layering.
The Controlling Pest and Diseases section points out beneficial insects and plants. The book also explains organic tricks for solving insect, plant deficiency, and disease problems. I love the way the book uses home products to solve common gardening problems in an easy to read format. This is my favorite gardening book.

Now with her own series, Helen is a solid, well-balanced Christian woman who exemplifies all that God intended women to be. She's one of those lucky travel writers who just happens to come across mysteries along the way, much in the style of the popular Jessica Fletcher (Murder She Wrote) mysteries.
Readers, Christian and non-Christian alike, will enjoy this great book and the entire series showing good solid family values and women at their best!
I recommend this book and EVERYTHING I've read so far by Patricia Rushford. She'll keep you entertained to the very end!

When Irene is shot to death, Helen decides to investigate by setting herself up as a target. She feels that someone at Kincaid Labs has secrets they want kept buried. To uncover them, Helen checks into Edgewood Manor, one of the top convalescent centers in the nation even as her son pleads with her not to become involved. Inside the idyll home, Helen learns that once she is there, she might not leave the place alive.
The first novel, NOW I LAY ME DOWN TO SLEEP, in the Helen Bradley mysteries is an interesting thriller that is highlighted by an interesting lead protagonist. Even though, the story line is relatively simplistic, to Patricia H. Rushford's credit, it remains a gripping suspense laden tale. This series will be well liked by readers of mystery.

Stay away from this, it's not worth your time.
And if you are forced to read it for class, beware that it's hard to sell this thing. Nobody wants it. I have been to several different bookstores that won't touch it.

The book records conversations amongst Texas quilting groups, to which the authors were invited and the ladies seem eager to tell stories of their early days in dug outs and cabins, their families scaping a life from the soil and their role in that. None of them ever sound hard done by or as if they wish their lives had been different. And they are all keen to express the creative and fulfilling role that quilting has had in their lives.
If you are not a quilter, you will still enjoy the strength, friendship and nobility that run through these conversations - they are a link with a passed era, which I felt honoured to share as I read.
