New from Kimberly Eddy and Joyful Momma Publishing

Did you have a great Thanksgiving Day? I know I did. I love turkey and the trimmings. In a few days, I'll post about a new way to prepare your turkey for roasting, by brining it. The flavor was amazing.

Just after finishing my meal, I sat down while the children built their snow fortress and my husband watched the Detroit Lions lose badly (~smile~), and I put the final edits on a little ebook I have been working on called "Joyful Momma's Guide to Christmas Gingerbread and Other Holiday Treats". Unlike my other ebooks, this one is rather short (25 pages total), but it's packed full of information. I have great instructions and recipes for Gingerbread people and houses, homemade hot chocolate, fresh chai tea, Venetian bar cookies, and even how to make your very own Turkish Delight to eat the next time you watch Narnia.

This ebook is sold separately and it is also available for free when you buy my Advent Ebook from now until the end of 2008.

A Very Special Offer!

One of my absolute favorite homeschooling books is "Teaching the Trivium" by Harvey and Laurie Bluedorn of Trivium Pursuit. I have especially enjoyed their list of ten things to do with children before age ten. I have found this to be a great resource to all new homeschoolers and anyone interested in early childhood education. Now having teens and pre-teens, I can tell you that these principles have bore out some great fruit in my own children.

Additionally, their sons, Nathanial and Hans Bluedorn, wrote two of our family's all time favorite books, "The Fallacy Detective" and "The Thinking Toolbox". Both of these books are entertaining and educational reads on logic.

Well, Laurie Bluedorn just emailed me with a special offer to share with you, which I think you'll love:
