#catchingup on #awesomeautumnbooks #day17 & #fallintobooks #day22 - #falltitles / #fallreads

An interesting looking title that I hadn't heard of until now. Chronicles the fall of technological society from the perspective of a secluded Amish village.

Autumn is my favorite season so I find it strange that I only have two books that I consider fall titles. I added my new autumnal colored blank book for extra fall-ness. It's going to be my new poetry notebook.

My plans for the evening: homemade potato soup, wine, and two books! I hope to be all caught up on the #readingenvyreadalong tonight! And I also hope to start Autumn tonight and finish before the Man Booker winner is announced! #falltitles #awesomeautumnbooks

GA_Bookworm07 How did you make your potatoe soup? 7y
EllieDottie I used the recipe from Julia Child's cookbook! I just boiled potatoes in salted water until they are done then I added cooked yellow onion and garlic! Then just smashed everything up added butter and milk! (edited) 7y

This one is a bit of a stretch, but I love love love this cookbook! Full of simple, unpretentious recipes that use seasonal ingredients, it is a reliable go-to, all year. My understanding is that recipe contributions are largely from the Mennonite community. It includes lots of vegetarian recipes, some quite creative. Part of a series including "More-With-Less" and "Extending the Table". ?????❤?

drokka I have two of the other Simply cookbooks and they're some of my go-to books. Though, one of them has recipes from the 70s when people didn't worry so much about the amount of butter and sugar. Having said that, they don't include processed foods either. 7y
Blueberry I love this one too! I need to buy it because I borrow it every year from my library. It's from a series of cookbooks commissioned by the Mennonite Central Committee. There is a children's one also. 7y
No_One @drokka I have the series of three and I think I use this one the most. Not sure about you but everything I have made turned out extremely well! 😊 7y

No_One @Blueberry Oh! I had no idea about the children's one! And here I am, about to buy an Ikea play kitchen for my niece for her bday. 😊 I will have to get the book, too! Thanks for the tip! 7y
drokka Absolutely! Completely easy to understand recipes, and never have I looked at anything from these books and feel like a step is missing or directions unclear. 7y
Hestapleton This looks awesome! 7y
No_One @drokka yes! Very well written. They put a lot of thought and effort into these books. 😊 7y
No_One @Hehaney the whole series really is great! 7y
Blueberry I just went on Amazon and irdered it. 😊 7y
Suet624 Yes, this is a lovely recipe book. 7y
diovival I have this too! Got it from my CSA one year. 7y
No_One @Blueberry yay! 👍 7y
quirkyreader I remember when I came out. I was volunteering at a Mennonite charity and got to put up stock and this was one of the books the shop sold. 7y
No_One @quirkyreader oh very cool! 7y
CuriousG There is absolutely *nothing* that beats a Mennonite cookbook. I think I have at least 15 of them ranging from communities all over Canada and the U.S....although I learned more from seeing how food was such a central element in my family/community than any of the books can ever convey. My husband says he married me because it is practically guaranteed there will be pie at every event. 😅 7y
CuriousG This is my fav cookbook that wasn't created by a family or community I know. 🍊🍏 7y
No_One @CuriousG they just seem like so much "common sense". And pie is the best dessert! ? I am loving these three cookbooks. 7y
CuriousG @No_One Common sense and making delicious pies are basically the foundations of being Mennonite (in my opinion) ... why are there no pie-eating emojis? 😄 7y
No_One @CuriousG haha! Agreed! Should be a pie emoji! 7y

It's a short story, but I think it works well for #FallTitles. I really should read more Poe. #AwesomeAutumnBooks

It breaks my heart that this is the first real entry under this book! It's so good. I'd describe it to you, but the back of the book does a better job of it. #falltitles #awesomeautumnbooks

Natasha.C.Barnes Plus, it's only 206 pages. 7y
LeahBergen I've been meaning to read Bowen for years. I have The Little Girls on my shelf. 7y
Libby1 It's in my Mount TBR! I'll have to bump it up the list. Thanks for the recommendation! 7y

Natasha.C.Barnes @Libby1 @LeahBergen Oh yay, you guys are making me so happy! I also highly recommend To the North, The Death of the Heart, The House in Paris, and (slightly less so) The Hotel. 7y
Natasha.C.Barnes @LeahBergen I'm ashamed to say I hardly even remembered seeing that title--I was in such a rush to find a thesis topic that I was only able to read 5 of her books and chose 3 to write about. But I just read a GR review that said it was tough going (from someone who loved other Bowen), so that intrigues me bc she's usually such an easy read, not being as experimental with language as, say, Virginia Woolf. 7y
Natasha.C.Barnes @Libby1 Oh, and it's so short and fast, you could read this one in an afternoon, easy. 7y
batsy I loved The Death of the Heart but it was quietly devastating. I want to read her other books but also feel I need to emotionally prepare myself, lol. 7y
Natasha.C.Barnes @batsy Haha, yes, I know exactly what you mean. To the North is also devastating, maybe even slightly more so, but The Last September is easier. Yes, a way of life for a group of people is dying out, but you also know that it SHOULD be, and it isn't so caught up in the characters individually. 7y
