Rambling about Winter in This Old House

February 14, 2021February 15, 2021 / Hilda Rebecca / 2 Comments

Our home was built in 1898. We've had the benefit of its shelter for almost 18 years now.

I was already in the habit of choosing and committing to reading at least one book each month JUST FOR ME, and sharing each read with a friend.
