"It was built open-slatted to let air move through it. Candlelight shone yellow through the slats until I was near enough for the sound of my footsteps to be heard inside. Then the candle was blown out and only the moon shone down. I opened the door and and stepped in. Shelves on one side filled with brown crockery. Milk jugs sitting up to their shoulders in cool water.. The spring rose up from its deep source and smelled of wet earth and the stones at the center of the world."
Thirteen Moons by Charles Frazier (Cold Mountain)
I've not read it yet but it looks like it'll be a good one.

Ooooh, I have to read this book! I loved Cold Mountain.
I'm having fun catching up. I sure missed your posts while you were away. :-)
The book thing is fun! I'm going to give it a try on my blog, so check in there soon.
You do look like Lily Tomlin!
Very poetic words. Those apple pies of yours are poetry of their own kind!
