Tasha's Christmas

This books gives a look at the Tudor household Christmas traditions. It somewhat follows the video or DVD "Take Peace," which is also about Christmas at Tasha Tudor's house. Written by Tasha's former business partner, but still a book Tasha Tudor fans would want to add to their bookshelves.

A must own for any homesteader.....

This is a book I would recommend highly to any of my homesteader, self sufficiency seeker or practitioner of the voluntary simplicity lifestyle, kindred spirits. We own all of the books written by Tasha Tudor and I was so happy to get this one, which is about her and how she and her family do Christmas. Our lifestyle is akin to hers, even though we live in the Sierras of California. The text by Harry Davis is so wonderful and brings to light how Tasha Tudor does things and how important passing on family customs is and can be. The photographs by Jay Paul are so crisp, clear and delightful and match the text so well. Something that is a rarity.Chapter on The Animals Christmas which begins on page 38 is something the homesteader person will appreciate and identify with. And we so laugh out loud literally to see her great sense of humor and the whole serving Hannah on a plater. And how nice to be reminded that she like the rest of us who have goats and chickens, decorates their abodes for the holidays. Heck I think her goat set up is the best I have seen.I also love her section on Christmas dinner and for all you homesteaders reading this, you will notice we all seem to own the same china. And it nice to see a kindred spirit being photographed using their fireplace for cooking food. For those who homestead or live a lot like Tasha Tudor this is a book you will want because it will provide years of pleasure and in a way a reminder that you (we) aren't the lost breed everyone thinks. Or a novelty or oddity. And you will also glean some wonderful ideas to incorporate into your lifestyle.

forever christmas

a wonderful book to learn of all the christmas joys of tasha tudor. many other christmas books are unavailable because of price etc. i loved reading about the snow lanterns, the raven on her christmas tree and why she has it there, and the advent wreath and the beautiful red ribbons from her mothers wedding. i will surely this year have a raven on my tree just below the star and red ribbon on my advent wreath. beautiful illustrations which i like better that the photographs. wonderful thought for a wonderful christmas if you get in the spirit from this book.take joy!!!!
