About meLibrarian. Reader. Amateur cook. Country boy living in the city. I didn't learn to read until 2nd grade, which was really hard for my teacher mother. But once I got it....here's the result!

About my libraryWhen I moved from Dallas to New York, I weeded my library down to bare bones. I gave a lot away to friends, carefully placed some in libraries, and just generally found homes for them. So, what did I keep? A few books I'd had since I was a child. Cookbooks (just the ones I actually use). Photography books (just too expensive not to keep, though they were durn heavy to move). A *bit* of what I had collected in religion (I may have to rebuild in liturgy, as I'm missing those books). And some poultry, canary, other pet books that would be hard to replace or find at a library. I weeded down to about 1/8 of the books I had before.
