Dorcas Smucker lives in a 90-year-old farmhouse near Harrisburg, Oregon, with her husband and five children. She weaves the threads of ordinary days into stories that first charmed the readers of the Eugene, Oregon, Register-Guard, and are now gathered in this collection. Join her as she hangs wallpaper with her husband, copes with lambs in the kitchen, and survives the annual whirlwind of grass-seed harvest. Share her terror when her son learns to drive, remember Grandma’s Amish funeral, and learn to love the cat that showed up on the front porch. And, most of all, find the wonder and joy hidden in unexpected places and ordinary days.
