Certainly there are lots of things in life that money wonโt buy, but have you ever tried to buy them without money?

Haha, yes! It made me think of Beatrix Potter or Wind in the Willows or something. Always wise to store up some good books for the winter:)

I so relate to that squirrel. What better way to spend winter than sitting by the fireplace with a cup of coffee and a few books!
