Here is the link to Sarah's website, which is displaying the reading from
May 1 on it's main page. Be sure to click on TRADITIONS from her menu, I
was just reading it when I got your message asking for more info. It is
great. You can find these books at bookstore, or even regular stores that
carry magazines and books. Meijer's which is a combo grocery/household
store had them, and the books in these kinds of stores are always a little
less expensive.
