 | Festivals Family and Food Jun 8, 2008 |
| This book is full of good old-fashioned information for embracing yearly celebrations, however I did not find it enjoyable to read (because of it's outdated format) in comparison to the other books from 'Hawthorn Press' I have been enjoying. | | |  | Not for Southern Hemisphere Dwellers Aug 14, 2007 |
| This book might be useful for northern hemisphere dwellers but not so much for southerners. The recipes are not metric and refer to ingredients that I have not heard of(single cream?). There are many songs but unless you can read music there is no way of knowing the tune. And of course the songs and poems all relate to seasons,animals and plants of the northern hemisphere. There are still useful bits of information for me but I have to pick and choose carefully. Some of the festivals refer more to the christian history rather than the celtic or pagan origins for example under the heading"Candlemas" there is no mention that it is the Celtic festival of First Light instead it refers only to "...the feast of the presentation of Christ in the Temple..."etc. As a non-christian this turns me off. Quite an old fashioned book as far as crafts and songs go but this seems to be in keeping with Waldorf Steiner philosphy. So if that's what you want enjoy! | | |  | Even the cover gives me joy! Nov 3, 2006 |
| I bought this book when my daughter was a one, she is now twenty-four. This book brought us our family such joy. Now that my children are grown, 24, 27, and 29 and the oldest is married. This book is still one of the key elements of celebration in our home. We are on on our thrid book and this holiday season I will be purchacing three more to send home with my children. | | |  | Lots of suggestions Dec 27, 2005 |
This book covers many festivals, or holidays, throughout the year. For each, a selection of poetry or very short stories excerpted from longer works is provided. Sometimes the legend(s) behind that day are given. Also included are games, recipes, and craft projects. The recipes use British measurements and ingredients, so for Americans they will require some adjustment to find ingredients in some cases.
This is a useful book, but given its length it could have been better. Perhaps it's that the recipes aren't as accessible for Americans; I can't quite put my finger on what left me underwhelmed. Common holidays in America are of course not covered. Still, it's a very useful resource. If you're just beginning with the celebration of seasonal holidays, I'd recommend Mrs. Sharp's Victorian Traditions by Breathnach instead to start off with, then add this one later when you're ready for more. | | | | I liked the itdea but not this book. Nov 17, 2005 |
| I found this book did not meet my expectations. I was delighted to find that the book All Year Round was just what I was expecting and enjoyed it much more. Great ideas, but a bit cluttered. | | | Write your own review about Festivals Family and Food
