Block Print and Book Club.


I wanted to share this beautiful postcard that my super-talented friend sent me for Christmas! It is a reduction block print, and you can check out her blog, create*make*smile to see how she did it. While the process is time consuming, the result is spectacular... I was so happy to find mine in the mail!


Last month, my book club read the book Room by Emma Donoghue. I was pretty apprehensive about the subject matter, but it was handled in a way that was not totally horrifying. Here is a synopsis from Amazon:

“Five-year-old Jack and his Ma live and eat and play and sleep in one room - an 11×11-foot space that is their prison - captives of the terrifying man Jack calls Old Nick. But as Jack grows older and more curious, it becomes clear that the room will not be able to hold him and Ma forever.”

I recommend it.
4 stars
