Ready, Set........Go!

We are almost there!  The Prepared Family Cookbook is done.  I'm sure it will never be done to my satisfaction, but I think that is the case with most anything I undertake.  Looking at in now, there are so many more recipes that I would like to add, more information, more....everything.   However, I have to admit - I smile from ear to ear every time I open the cover of this book.  In it, I see the stories of my life.  I see the recipes that have been passed down from one generation to the next.  I see the hard-won knowledge I have learned over many years of living off-grid all boiled down to chapters in a book.  This is it!

Sunday is our Book Bomb day on Amazon.  Please hold off on ordering the book until then, but on Sunday, I would love it if you ordered one, or two, or even three!  And then, I would love to hear what you think!

Within the next few weeks, I will have copies for sale that I can ship directly to you, if you would rather not order through Amazon.  I will keep you posted.

Did I mention that I was excited?!?

  2. Congratulations, Enola! A book is alot of hard work; especially going over proofs (over and over :)) to make corrections. I will be ordering tomorrow.

    Thank you for your blog and for sharing wisdom, insight, and your life.

  4. Ok, the big ? is this: Is the book from Amazon more expensive than ordering directly from you? And the second ? is this: How much is the book? I have very little funds to work with and it will make a difference if I order from Amazon or from you....Could you post the cost from both?
    Thanks and I am looking forward to to getting the book after all your efforts and looking at all the recipes you have chosen and then I will try my hand at
    making the food...YUMMY!!!

  9. It's been fun watching Amazon today. Last night it was in the 5-digits ranking. When I ordered this morning, it was 4,500-ish. Later it was just over 1000. Just checked and it's ranked 177 overall, 14th in cookbooks, food and wine. Congrats!

  11. Enola,

    I think your makin' bank on this book.

    Gee' Whiz I should write the "Single Mans Surfing and Walmart TV Dinner Survival guide for the Zombie Apocalypse"

    It will be on "How to Eat and not be Eaten"

    In the book "World War Z" they had "water zombies" that walked the ocean floors and worked their way up beaches and that would make surfing rather dangerous.

    (by the way, the surf was great at 6:00 am, banged out several good waves and my swimmers build is starting to return)

  15. I've had the book bomb day on my calendar ever since you mentioned it. Woke up yesterday with a migraine, but determined to order it on the 25th! Looking forward to reading thru the book like a cherished friend. I have quietly followed your blog for several years and feel like I know you. It's so nice to listen to a like minded woman. Good luck with your book and I can't wait to see it!
