#Read2025

I finished this one last night for #ChildrensClassicRead2025 & it‘s a soft pick for nostalgia for the author. I found it too long & disjointed with it being separate stories really rather than cohesive chapters. It could be because I waited for the end of the month & was hurrying a bit but I had a hard time keeping track of all of the family & other characters. It did have some charming moments though.

TheBookHippie It is not my favorite of hers but like you some of the passages I really enjoyed! 2d
LeahBergen It‘s not a favourite of mine either but … you‘re right. Any LMM is usually good for a hit of nostalgia, isn‘t it? 😊 2d

#Naturalitsy #HyggeHourReadathon

Tonight‘s #HyggeHour is being spent with Marigold. Trying to finish this one for #ChildrensClassicRead2025 March. My drink is coconut tea & my snack is a haupia (coconut) cupcake. (Which is yum!) 😋

My mood is a little tired & wishing the weekend was longer as it will be another busy work week ahead.

Next up for #KindredSpritsChristmas is Uncle Richard‘s New Year‘s Dinner. Another family feud is ended when Prissy secretly goes to her estranged uncle‘s house & cooks his New Year‘s dinner while he is at work. Classic LMM. 80 points

“I'd love to be friends with you,“ she said slowly. “I've often thought I'd like to know you. Isn't it odd that we have the same name? It was so nice of you to come and see me. I—I'd love to have you come often.“

Aw—such a sweet story of a mixup that leads to a kind deed and a future friendship. Also: Josie Pye!! ? ⤵️

CogsOfEncouragement lol Right? I‘m sure it is quite a chore to continually come up with unique names! I enjoyed this sweet story of kindness. 3mo
lauraisntwilder They were discussing the "other" Ida Mtchell and I thought, if only they had an idea of the other Josie Pye! 3mo

BarbaraJean @CogsOfEncouragement I‘ve often thought about that with LMM‘s short stories, wondering how she chose all the names! @lauraisntwilder Oh, my—yes!! Now you have me thinking: what if LMM had written a story in which this Josie Pye was that Josie Pye and had the name mixup. A very different story indeed. 😂 3mo
rubyslippersreads Was the Josie Pye in AOGG the evil twin of the one in this story? 3mo
BarbaraJean @rubyslippersreads I only just saw this comment! 🤦🏻‍♀️ And YES, I think we have an evil twin situation here. 3mo

@Scochrane26 - I'm your #JolabokaflodSwap match this year!!! I mailed your package earlier this week, but in typical Sarah-Style did not actually notate on the envelope anywhere that it was a Litsy package or who it was from 😂 So be on the lookout for a blue padded envelope from Ohio - that's your Swap gift!!! Merry Christmas!!

@MaleficentBookDragon thanks so much for hosting - I love this simple swap!!
