Subject: Re: [yarnmongers] A Dollop of Wisdom and Request for Good Book Recommendations ? I read the Dalai Lama's Cat on the recommendation of my SIL in India. It is funny and also educational about Buddhism? and being present from a cat's perspective. I have since read the third book - The Dalai Lama's Cat and the Power of Meow and have the second one checked out and partially read? - The Dalai Lama's Cat and the Act of Purring. The second book is about happiness as seen through the eyes of the cat. The third book is about meditation. Lots of good insight in the two that I've read and they are especially good at this time. Light reading but lots to think about.? ? On Thu, Mar 19, 2020 at 8:51 AM mary_007usa via Groups.Io <sewgood5=[email protected]> wrote: Elizabeth Zimmermann:

Knit on with confidence and hope through all crises.
Now, let us all take a deep breath and forge on into the future; knitting at the ready.

The Pound to Dollar ration is now $1.16 to 1 pound.? I ordered Na Craga in Selkie.? I know we're heading into summer.? I know wool 12 months a great so it works for me.
All of you can be relied upon for the best book recommendations, so let fly with some good ones.
I'm finishing up a nine book series by Upton Sinclair.? One of the books, Dragon's Teeth won the Pulitzer in 1943.? The series is about the devolution into WWII.? to read all of the titles has been a long road, but it's been a glorious ride.? I'll definitely up for a change of pace when I finish this last one.
