Isn't that garden book wonderful. I too own just about all the books about her. The only one I think I am lackomg is the one on Heirloom Crafts.She is truly inspiring. I love best how she has always lived her own life the way she wants too.

I just orderd two of her books on Amazon.com and the gardening book was one of them. The other one was her Heirloom Crafts book. Can't WAIT for them to come! I have the book about her life, and the one about her Dollhouse. WONDERFUL! She's got quite a sense of humor and I would love to have seen the museum display of her dollhouse in person. The pictures in the book are just amazing! Next I'll be getting her cook book and some of her childrens books-- just for fun!

Which book Becky? The Dollhouse book, or the one about her life? Both books are so wonderful! She's such a "Proper" Bostonian, but there is a bit of the "Bohemian" in her as well. When I am very old like her, I want people to say I lived my life as well as she has!! What a great lady!

I wrote down a quote from her book "The Private World of Tasha Tudor" LOVE it--

"Life isn't long enough to do all you could accomplish. And what a privilege even to be alive. In spite of all the pollution and horrors, how beautiful this world is." I say AMEN to that Tasha!
