Archives - Weekly Update

Those of us who live with people who love golf know that this is Masters weekend. That means that my husband will spend a LOT of time watching golf. I will make a huge batch of pimento cheese sandwiches (somewhere I found the official recipe from The Masters), and then I will head off to read a book. In many ways, this is the perfect weekend for both of us. By the way, my husband finished ALL CARRY by Gene Wojciechowski and loved it. He will be recommending it to his fellow golf lovers. Wait, does this make him “an influencer”?

Over the last few weeks, we have been talking about giving books as gifts throughout the year. When I spoke at an in-person event recently, I suggested as an example that people who use the library to read books should consider giving books as presents, and there were a lot of nodding heads acknowledging this as a good idea. I am going to take this one step further. Buy the books you love and give them as gifts, and do not wait until the holidays at the end of the year to do this.
