From the Author "Remember to take good care of the minutes and hours ~ the years will take care of themselves."

Susan has now added a three-part series to her list, all of them illustrated memoirs in scrapbook style filled with old photos, watercolors, quotes and recipes.

Born and raised in Southern California as the oldest of eight children, Susan followed her heart to the island of Martha's Vineyard in her 30s, "unable to live any longer without four seasons and picket fences as everyday architecture." She shares her 1849 home with her two kitties, Jack and Girl Kitty, and Joe Hall, who Susan calls "the man of her dreams." She writes a newsletter called "WILLARD," named for her grandfather, and all about home, the seasons, cooking, kitties, decorating, creativity and the little things that make life sweet.

Reviews
I love Susan's calendars. There are beautiful paintings, favorite quotes, all the regular holidays plus holidays one might not know about. There are birthdays of well-known people and not so well-known people, like Beatrix Potter and Gladys Taber. All of the full moons are marked, plus the names given them by some of the Native American tribes of the Northeast. (I'm a member of a western tribe; our names for the full moons aren't the same). And, there are even a few recipes! All in all, her calendars are pretty, cheerful and useful...what's not to love? :)
