Hi everyone,
As part of our quarantine we’ve been cleaning out the house, removing 24 years worth of things we just don’t need, books included. While my library does accept book donations, they’re currently closed and they limit the amount you can donate. It breaks my heart to recycle or trash books so I thought I’d list a whole mess here and if anyone wants them for free, I will deliver (porchside) locally or mail within the US. Comment below or send me a text or email if you would like any of these or have any questions.
Oh and check back because I still have more cookbooks and such to go through.
