Taunton + Savings = Mmmm.
To say that I am a geeky fangirl when it comes to Taunton is putting it mildly. I have had daytime fantasies of showing up unannounced at their headquarters in Newtown, Connecticut (yeah, I see you Taunton) with flowers and fresh coffee and warm muffins and pony rides for all of the pain and aggravation that they have saved me over the years. Not to mention the wisdom, experience and skills that they have imparted to me with their superb instructional design and commitment to quality.
And I don't usually call out certain sales because that would require that I post more than once a day EVERYDAY because, whoa, do you know how many sales are out there for stuff? My inbox is full of press releases and ads.
However.
If you haven't experienced the joys of Taunton Press and you love home improvement, woodworking, gardening, crafting or cooking, here is your big chance! There is a fifty percent off sale going on right now at Taunton . So you can relax on your couch during snowy days with this book and have an ironclad excuse not to be in the crawlspace under your sunroom porch fishing wire through old plaster walls.
(p.s. Hey, Taunton. Yeah, that's right. Muffins. Ponies. Call me.)

Ooh! I'm right there with you, girl. Even if the only books Taunton published were the Not So Big books, it would be worthwhile. But, Taunton has oh so much more.

Their building is beautiful, it's hidden back from the road just a litte bit and a has pretty landscaping on the property. You would thing they would have a a kiosk in the lobby to purchase their tomes, but alas, it is not so. (Yes, I share their zip code.)
