Baby Essentials

Ruby Rose Comes to Town 

Here's a list Stork Landing helped me to put together for all your baby needs. 

Yes, this is quite the extended list, so feel free to pick & choose as you desire. 

You can view a closer version of this list directly at story-express.com.

Look under My Books/Products, then under Ruby Rose Comes to Town. 

There's also a really cute video created by a group of children for you to watch too. 

I have a shortened version of Newborn Essentials as the last page of my newest book, Ruby Rose Comes to Town, which (cross our fingers) will be available really soon now. 

Ruby Rose Comes to Town is an endearing book perfect for the expectant new mother 

& the perfect book to gift at your next baby shower. 

I will be sure to let you know as soon as I can make it available.  In the meantime - here's a view of the front & back cover to wet your appetite!

SEEDS... the wonder of life!

My neighbor brought me over half of her home-grown banana squash - what a gift!

The seeds were plentiful - I pulled out about 100 from the caverns of this squash.  

Check this out though - I have never seen a seed like this one before. 

The other side looks identical with a slender beige middle on each. 

My daughter Eden had baked pumpkin bread the other day & saved me the seeds, again about 100 seeds from just one very small organic pumpkin. I give them a quick rinse to get most of the flesh off of the seed - they seem to dry better this way. 

Pumpkin seed on the left; banana squash on the right - awesome, right?

This is the cover of my new book - my project is posted on kickstarter so that I can raise funds to print this darling book. I have about 3 weeks left. Please share this link with others you may know who may be able to help me push on down the road.

Ruby Rose is Coming to Town

Ruby Rose

Ruby Rose

Whatcha goin' to do with so many clothes?

Stack 'em in the attic?

Store 'em 'neath the stairs?

Leave 'em alone?

Till nobody cares?

Too many showers!

Too many gifts!

When are you goin' to learn

About being thrift?

Share whatcha have

Give whatcha can

That's what we call

Care for fellow-man

Think about your sisters

Think about your brothers

Think about your neighbors

And thousands of others

Soon you'll be happy

Soon you'll be proud

Soon you'll be shouting

"Hooray!" out-loud

Ruby Rose Comes to Town is my newest book. The poem you've just read is a little jingle I created for the Little Bloomsbury Art Show, which was based on promoting peace & hope in an uncertain world through a sound financial basis, including being thrifty. 




Recycling is not a major theme in the book Ruby Rose Comes to Town, but definitely a minor theme which can be pulled from the story. 

Since I am preparing to go live on Kickstarter.com to raise funds for the publication, I wanted to include this jingle. Through friends, these 7 beautiful and talented children agreed to help me with this part of the project. 

These children are absolutely a delight to be around and brilliant. Together with their moms, they created a skit to go along with the Ruby Rose poem.  

You will be able to view it as soon as we get the promotional video completed. I hope you will enjoy it. I certainly had a blast the evening of the filming - 2 dogs, 2 families & relatives, pizza & a party atmosphere added to the fun!

Ready for action!
