It took me 2 hours, but I finished The Pearl, and I have to admit that I enjoyed it more than when I read it in high school. Does anyone want to discuss it who remembers it? I was shocked by the ending.

I have yet to start packing for my weekend away at VA Beach. 3 of us are going. Oldest, youngest, and me. We are carpooling with one of the moms and her kid. We plan on hitting Jamestown Settlement for a field trip on the way down. on Friday. The weather is supposed to be nice so far.

I haven't read it, yet, but it sounds like I should put it on the list.

Only 90 pages. Would have been done faster if I didn't have mom things to do.

That's one I haven't read. Do you recommend it?

I'm sure you are, I'll grab my Winnie the Pooh pyjamas and I'll be right over. Where do you live again?
That would be a personal choice, I've never tried that pot dish so can't comment.
I live in northern Wisconsin. The weather isn't too bad now, no snow on the ground and flowers are starting to pop up. You just wouldn't want to visit in January or February, lots of cold and snow.

I have liked all of the Stienbeck novels I have read, but that only amounts to 3. I'd like to read Cannery Row and The Winter of our Discontent, and I wouldn't mind reading East of Eden again, though that one is HUGE. But I liked it, so I just need to make time for it.

Recently I've been reading John Grisham novels. Every time I finish one I go to the library and get another. Each one is totally different yet they are all excellent.

*...............Obviously John Steinbeck is studied in high schools and maybe even colleges. John Grisham is not that kind of author....but....
I just felt like sharing about John Grisham anyway

I haven't read The Pearl but I have enjoyed other Steinbeck novels, I really enjoyed East of Eden. Even though East of Eden is such a big book, I read it all in one day. I just didn't want to put it down.

I love the food pictures. Reminds me of when my kids did that. I always got a kick of their tiny tongues trying to lick up the bowl. And...the shove blankets, etc. in the swing so the kid doesn't fall out.
Oh so that's why those white towels were there in the swing with Emy! I couldn't figure out what the heck was going on with the white towels stuff in there!

@donaldtoo , keep an eye on the weather down there. I was watching the national news a while ago and they were reporting some big storms though Texas -- rain, wind (some tornado watches) and hail. They showed from Austin and north in a big area in that weather report..

Because one can exist in Northern Wisconsin, but, it can hardly be called living. Have you noticed how many times they have left Wisconsin to actually enjoy life? I rest my case! If it wasn't for northern weather, Disney Parks would be ghost towns.Why not?

My sister in law lives in Newport News, but she's on her way to Disney because my niece has cheerleading summit this weekend.
