The Turquoise Table: Finding Community and Connection in Your Own Front Yard by Kristin Schell

3.0

Do you ever wish you knew your neighbors? Do you ever think wistfully of bygone days of sitting on the front porch, waving, and calling to people by name as they walk past? "The Turquoise Table" is the story of one woman's hunch of a way to neighbor well, and her invitation to join her in being front yard people.

This book was a fairly light read. It's enhanced with full color picture illustrations, testimonies, and recipes. The content is definitely meant to sit and read through, but the book is pretty enough to serve as a coffee table book.

I recommend this book for people wanting to grow in hospitality towards their neighbors and who like the idea of old-fashioned, front porch living.
