{"product_id":"iowa-kitchen-table-wisdom-j-l-wertis-9798999049513","title":"Iowa Kitchen Table Wisdom: Essays of Hope and Inspiration for Difficult Times","description":"There was a time when every major event in life either took place or was discussed around the kitchen table. It was a place where political, financial, disciplinary, and personal issues were resolved. It was a place where families, friends, and neighbors gathered to share a meal, play board games or cards, discuss events of the day, or just share their day over a cup of coffee. When life threw you a curve, a discussion with Mom over a cup of tea at the kitchen table seemed to make everything better.\u003cbr\u003eThis collection of short, thought-provoking essays based on timeless truths, ancient adages, and modern maxims might have been the subject of discussion at the kitchen table in days of old. The essays are based primarily on Midwest sayings and truisms that are as pertinent today as they were back when kitchen tables were still a \"thing.\"\u003cbr\u003eSo, get comfortable, grab a cup of tea, imagine you are at your family's kitchen table, and let these inspirational essays renew you and give you hope and strength to face whatever the future holds.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e J.
