Lousia May Alcott
Little Women was first published in October 1868. Louisa's publisher, Mr. Niles, had urged her to write a book for girls.
~Journals of Louisa May Alcott, 1868
Seventeen years later, Louisa was able to write:“The copyright made her fortune, and the “dull book” was the first golden egg of the ugly duckling.”

Tips
Freshen old books
You can rejuvenate old books that smell musty by sealing them overnight in a can with clean cat litter.
Baby wipes
Periodically shaking out your PC's keyboard is a good way to get rid of the dust and debris that gathers underneath and in between the keys. But that's just half the job. Use a baby wipe to remove the dirt, dried spills, and unspecified gunk that builds up on the keys themselves. Make sure to turn off the computer or unplug the keyboard before you wipe the keys.
Mouthwash can clean your computer
alcohol-based mouthwash will work as well as, or better than, glass cleaner on your computer monitor or TV screen. Apply with a damp, soft cloth and buff dry. Remember to use only on glass screens, not liquid crystal displays! The alcohol can damage the material used in LCDs.

Crock Pot
Apple Butter
3lbsGranny smith apples

Great ideas again. Thank you.
Ginger, I love to read and Little Women was one of my favorites. I loved the book and loved the movie.. and I loved the play at our Christian School when my daughter played the lead. She did a wonderful job. Just seeing the picture has brought back some neat memories... I just may have to rent this movie this weekend.... and maybe the grand will enjoy watching it......

Marcia
