These are two of my absolute favorite books by Sharon Lovejoy. Trowel & Error is chock full of tips and remedies and Sharon's adorable drawings! The second book is the one I'm going to have her autograph tomorrow. A Blessing of Toads is a collection of Sharon's wonderful articles that she wrote for Country Living Gardener magazine. I have every issue and it is one of my all time favorite gardening magazines. I'm giving a copy of Sharon's new book, Toad Cottages & Shooting Stars to my friend, Shelley, a new grandmother! I know she's going to love it!
If you are going to be in the Chagrin Falls, Ohio area, Sharon will be speaking at the Chagrin Falls Town Hall on tomorrow evening, June 17, 2010 at 6:30 PM sponsored by The Village Herb Shop. Tickets are $15 and includes a fairy thyme tea as well as meeting Sharon and having her sign her new book, Toad Cottages & Shooting Stars or any of her other books. I'm really looking forward to meeting her! The Village Herb Shop will be open for special shopping 10 AM to 9 PM on June 17th. You need to call (440) 247-5029 if you are in Ohio or out of state (like me) 1-800-836-9120 to reserve your ticket or tickets. Hope if you are in the area, you will think about spending an evening with Sharon Lovejoy.
How neat to meet Sharon. I loved her articles and drawings in Country Living Gardener, which was my favorite magazine and such a disappointment when they quit publishing.

How I wish I could be there. I love Chagrin Falls, but not with my husband in ICU!
ReplyDeleteLVL have a great time. Say hi to Sharon for us in Texas too far away to make the trip. (They sell her book at ARE.)
ReplyDeleteI will say hello from my favorite bloggers!
ReplyDeleteOh, I miss Country Living Gardener magazine as well FlowerLady!
Hope Norm is doing better, Peggy!
I hope the landscape is looking better for you, TG!
Thanks ladies for stopping by!
Those are my favorite books of hers also. I'm just reading "A Blessing of Toads".
ReplyDeleteI loved Country Living Gardener also and miss it a lot.
I would love to be there tonight to meet Sharon.
Have fun.
Blessings,
Kay
