The clouds are perfect! I CAN'T WAIT!!! And since Spring hasn't quite arrived in PA yet either, I can pretend that these clouds are here! (as opposed to our ever-present sky blanket of bleck-grey!)

The cover! Beautiful. Love it. Just pre-ordered! Also, I love this whole ordinary world post. Thank you. I’m currently on the porch watching puffy clouds roll by and all the birds in one chorus.

I love the cover; the clouds are worth the effort! I must say, I am delighted that this book is coming out in October. I’m due to have a baby then and I’ve been tossing around the idea of neighbourliness and postpartum this time. Maybe because I live in a small town with an aching population, maybe because my “mom friends” have started new paths and so we won’t have the same availability to get together, but J keep thinking, I just want to make friends and be a friends with people who AREN’T in my season. And honestly, I need help. (see also: awkward, shy, unsure) So I am very very happy to have a practical guide to being neighbourly. Like VERY. I just preordered! 💕

Just pre ordered....you know this book is my jam!

YES to quiet....we were not made for all this noise!

Finally... do you use sweet potatoes or just plain potatoes? Want to make it the "Martin way".

Always sweet potatoes! My SIL sometimes leaves out the chicken and says it's just as good.
