Love your book list!
Why, thank you! I love your blog – I’ll have to check for some recipes to try…
So lucky you’re already taken or I’d have you in my basement. Great list. 2xHeinlein!! Can I recommend the three books by Brian Greene on quantum physics??
Heinlein was so ahead of his time.
I was not aware of Brian Greene’s books, I’ll have to add them to my list. Do you have one that’s your favorite?
