White Silk, Dark Chocolate, and a Little Bit of Magic: Life is Good and We are Good in it - Hardcover

Barbara Herrick celebrates the downtoearth and the lofty, the mundane and the profound in our everyday lives. "We enter our glory years, full tilt, our heads and hearts high. Our midyears are when we finally find our place and our peace, when we are powerful, when we are well and wellrewarded, when we're the best at what we do, when we discover that life is good and we are good in it." This beautifully crafted and designed book celebrates women, their lives, their sorrows, their triumphs, their work, the men they love. Sometimes it's not easy growing old in this culture, but Barbara Herrick, who is "one of us," inspires us to feel our own impact and celebrate each day.
