Just ordered this book, anyone ever hear of it?? PRAIRE GIRLS GUIDE TO LIFE.
Just started reading LAKE WOBEGONE DAYS. I have seen this around but never read it. Got it at a second hand book site.

Yes, I have read it. I got it through the library. It has some good and basic advice. The directions are clear and concise!

Ok, I had a little more time to look through it and I like this one a lot. Really good projects and advice. It inspired me quite a bit. Are there any more books like it out there???

OMG!! I Actually had put this in my "Basket" on Amazon when I ordered several books a few weeks ago, but I took it out (don't remember WHY-- probably was ordering too many. I LOVE books!!!) I will just have to order it after all! Thanks for sharing! ~~ Tracy

I also am going to have to check this out...sounds like a good one. I love Lake Woebegon, of course I have relatives in Minnesota, so it is in my genes...

Sounds like a great book. Think I'm gonna pick me up a copy when I go out later. Thanks for letting me know about it.

It's never too late to be what you might have been.

Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

I just picked up the book yesterday- I really like the small format and the projects sound really interesting too.

I saw the Prarie Girl's Guide to Life at a bookstore a few months ago and wanted to buy it for a friend. Her birthday is coming up in april, thanks for the reminder!

I bought it Nancy Jo. It's full of all sorts of stuff, recipes, crafts, ect. I've enjoyed it.
I read LWD last summer. I picked it up used last year too. I have never heard Garrison Kellior on the radio before, but I liked the book and enjoyed his sense of humor.
