Hi guys! I got mine, too! What a wonderful surprise to see the postman walking up the drive with a box from MaryJanes Farm! I love it, love it already - have looked through it quickly twice while baking banana bread and chocolate layer cake this afternoon. Sittin' in the kitchen at my round oak table, smelling banana bread and reading the new MJF book - heaven! :)
Mary Jane, you out did yourself. It is really a work of art. jpbluesky

Isnt the book just grand girls? I have had so much to do outside in 97 degree heat but in between cooling rests inside I read more of the book! I am so inspired and energized. The book just exudes positive energy!

Showed it to the great ladies who run our bookmobile yesterday and they ordered it for our library as well as placed a suggestion that MJs Magalog be included in their subscriptions! Eileen

I received my book today in the mail. Beautiful photography! It was nice to see a couple familar names from the connection here, ie. SoapMaven! It's alot to process and will take some time to just browse through it. Seems like they've included something for everyones interest levels! Nice work, good promotion, MaryJane and all the faithful crew.

I think my mailman is starting to think I have "lost it" I ran out to meet his truck at the mailbox today thinking my book would just "HAVE TO BE THERE" and it wasn't. I said..HI...don't I have a package???? He just said "no...not today Jenny"..like I am 5 years old. I hope it comes tomorrow!! He needs to see that there really IS a package..haha

I just went to Borders on my lunch hour and purchased the book. Just holding it in my arms made me smile. I can't wait to find a quiet corner in my house and read it. It is absolutely beautiful. MaryJane - you're the best!! You've touched my heart with all your thoughts and experiences. I can't thank you enough. When life gets tough, this will be my relaxation!!

No book yet. :-( I keep peeking out in the afternoon thinking the postman just left it sit by my door. *sigh* I am NOT the most patient person I know! I am even more excited (if that's possible) since you girls have been talking about it. Maybe tomorrow!

Jenny and Teresa, you might want to check in with whomever shipped yours and ask for tracking info, if available... if not, at least a shipping date. Just a thought.

I ordered mine through this site....I still have the confirmation e-mail but I don't think it contains tracking info?? If it doesn't come by Friday maybe I'll just give a quick call to the Farm though I am sure there were a ton of people that pre-ordered and it just takes time. I'm right there with ya Jenny! I am SURE it will be well worth the wait!

I ordered mine from this site too...and not really a long time ago, so if they were going down a big old long list in the order they came in I guess it is my fault i didn't order earlier!!!

That very well may be the issue for me too. I just discovered this site in the last few weeks and ordered my book right away. I hadn't thought of that Jenny!

Hi farmgirls! It's so wonderful to see all your warm comments about the book. Thank you so much! I just checked with Nick about the shipping status of the books ordered from this site so that you could have an update. He said that, unlike our foods which are processed here and usually shipped the day after the orders are placed, the books are dependent on us getting shipments from the book distributor. That's why some of you have received them and some haven't. Just be assured that we are shipping them as fast as we can!
We had our first booksigning event on Tuesday night here in Moscow. It was so fun, and we sold lots of books! MaryJane is out traveling around our local area all this week at booksignings. You can see her schedule by clicking on the "Follow MJ's Book Tour" link on our home page. Hope some of you can meet her along the way!
Thanks again for your lovely comments! Carol

I went to a local bookstore, Aunties, and purchased mine on the 24th, the "release" date. The photography is just amazing and the stories are wonderful. MaryJane is such a vivid storyteller and that makes the book so special. Last night I went to her booksigning at Aunties. It was so much fun! |
