Love. Lust. Betrayal. The three most frequent milestones of the youth, in their journey of life. But when Riya takes the same path in her early twenties, she marks two more milestones beyond these. She explores mysteries much deeper into the simple daily actions of life like cursing and blessing, and finally ends up discovering the existence of a master plan behind all human actions and emotions, which is way beyond our control.
Things that frequently come to the attention of the homemaker supply the theme for this book of devotional readings. Tied with scriptural admonitions and points of emphasis, these common everyday objects and events provide illustrations for the truth found in selected Bible passages. One hundred twenty-two separate devotional thoughts speak to the heart under such titles: "Against a Rainy Day," "When God Is Slow," "Spock Style," "The Right to Be Angry," "The Twenty-Four-Hour Virus," "Sunday Dinner," and "Burned Toast." There is something for each day to make a homemaker's daily experiences spiritually rewarding and meaningful.

This book is the third in the series, and it follows both Kiss Your Elbow – A Kentucky Memoir, about growing up during the 1940s and 50s,’and its sequel, Changing the Sheets – A Kentucky Memoir, is my story as a representative of the Silent Generation, and how we found our voice. This book is a “Companion Book” to my second book, Changing the Sheets – A Kentucky Memoir. This book begins with my hard-won freedom, as a divorced woman, by starting my new life in the Highlands area of Louisville – the neighborhood of my dreams. Many women were striking out on their own, at this time. I was eager to join them. As the generation that took women out of the home and into the workplace, our Silent Generation needed more skills in setting boundaries, and taking up for ourselves. We were used to being told, “It’s not ‘Lady-like,’ to speak ‘out of turn.” Many challenges were part of my journey, but there was a lot of fun and adventure, too. The time period shown in this book follows the caustic, 1960s, and moves beyond. As you read, you will hopefully recall some good memories of your own. Nostalgia is powerful!
