I read it for a long time, but her day to day postings and musings just kind of got to be, well, wordy. :) And I don't read the recipe section, but I do still have the photography section in my reader as I like the challenges she gives.<br />She has posted pictures of her kids participating in their church ceremonies (sort of like Catholic I gather) so I assume they at least attend church on a regular basis, but of course only God knows the heart! :)<br />Then again, I'm not sure someone would know I was a Christian from reading my blog... at least not until I started doing the 5 Minute Fridays this year.Kristahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04030109870736499425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31647067.post-72296194794486789942012-02-14T09:38:06.801-08:002012-02-14T09:38:06.801-08:00Tee, hee, I just looked at the online catalog and ...Tee, hee, I just looked at the online catalog and my new library has this book! I see another late night in my future! :) I've read her blog a few times, but am far from a faithful follower. I think the story appeals to me because I'm expecting some similarities as this NOT farm girl married her own Marlboro Man/tractor wheels/farmer type. . .<br /><br />And giggling over the all-cap-nickname! :)Shonyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04310547848215492736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31647067.post-65456733176933015892012-02-14T08:45:52.493-08:002012-02-14T08:45:52.493-08:00I like her recipes TONS, but you are right she is ...I like her recipes TONS, but you are right she is a bit too wordy when giving recipes. I usually have to copy and paste everything and then take out all the chatter by hand.<br /><br />Something noteworthy though...there is a guy at my gym who I refer to as The Marlboro Man.

I guess now since YOU gave it a pretty good review I should read it. : ) Someday. Eventually. Maybe. <br /><br />Or I could just wait for the movie. :)Stephaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04660852009014295034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31647067.post-44715676475883327082012-02-14T07:26:56.677-08:002012-02-14T07:26:56.677-08:00I've never read her book or blog, but my mom&#...I've never read her book or blog, but my mom's a big fan.

Part of it was because of the "everyone else is raving over it" thing, and partly because at the time she was posting her love story in bits and it was at a rather steamy place.Barbara H.http://barbarah.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31647067.post-47007882633979446462012-02-14T07:01:35.286-08:002012-02-14T07:01:35.286-08:00Used to read the PW blog and think she's a hoo...Used to read the PW blog and think she's a hoot myself. Gave it up due to time constraints. She is now BIG in the online/bloggy world.
