treasures

Two of them in one well-crafted photo.

Is there such a thing as too much of a good thing?

PS: do note the stickers on the spine of each book--all shelved by LOC number...

Joanna-
Do stop by again and tell me more about yourself. I'm always excited to meet a kindred soul. :)

Um... for the record, John, I don't think you're getting fat, despite what your wife seems to be implying.

when I mentioned 'lots of a good thing' in reference to John I wasn't referring to his weight :)

So do you guys have one (or fifty) of these? I do, but I've never unwrapped it. I think I am over the whole idea of lending out books. (They tend not to come home, and I'm not convinced this would help, even though the OCD in me loves the thought.)

the book organization is primarily to know what we have and not to track loans. altho we do have that capability, too :)

Um... for the record, John, I don't think you need a haircut, despite what your wife seems to be implying.
