Happy Friday, bookish friends! I pulled another fun Christmas read off my shelf for y’all this week.
Hope ya’ll don’t mind, my redneck is showing…

I don’t mind your redneck showing ๐ When my brother was little, when someone asked him what he wanted to be when he grew up he always said, “a redneck.” He wears it proudly.

Me too! I’m still not eating fish, shrimp, crawdads, frogs, squirrel, or any internal organs. Just sayin, I’m only a little bit redneck…

I love the Robertsons! I’m with you not eating squirrel, organs, frogs, etc. My first line comes from Bathsheba by Jill Eileen Smith.
Jerusalem, 994 BC
Darkness curtained the sky, hiding the stars, sheltering Bathsheba in the inner courtyard of her home.

I’m all about the breads, cakes, pies, and real butter though! Miss Kay could definitely teach me a lot!
