Cornelia’s Bakery and Café

This is the café on the town map. Bread in the case, a kettle, a table by the window.

The Countryside books began at a small table after J.T. came home from Iraq. The American Soul is the daily continuation of that same work: Scripture, the Christian roots of the American founding, and the names of people who spent their courage in public.

Sit a minute. Then take a cup out the door and into an episode. The bookstore on Main — H & C — is next door in spirit, and is Mrs. Nichols’s shop.
