Hi: Just wanted to let you know that I received my books on Monday, May 2. Everything was just perfect. My favorite so far is the cookbook Nourishing Traditions. What a wealth of information it contains! I am amazed at how very naive and ignorant I am with respect to the manufacturing and marketing of our foods. I have shared so much with my husband and, as a result, we are committed to making continual and life long changes. I have to say also that The How to Herb Book is continually found in one of my children's hands. They are quite open to learning and trying. May your business continue to bless those who find it and may God continue to Bless your business! I will place an order for the herbs as soon as I determine which ones my family would most benefit from.

With much gratitude.
~Holly
