Infos

"e;Do you remember the time Lorna tried to make ground beef with her car?"e; For almost forty years, Lorna Stuber's high school classmates have teased her mercilessly about the time she crashed her car into a steer, leaving the car with tufts of bovine hair stuck in cracks in the hood. The car has since been known as "e;Lorna's Cowfur Mobile"e;. Filled with relatable yet unique stories of sibling rivalry, community, and coming-of-age lessons, Nut Bags and Num-Nums tells the story of a girl growing up on a Canadian cattle ranch in the 1970s and 1980s. With a mix of humour and poignancy, the author enlightens readers on how to dispatch a gopher, gut a chicken, and clean and cook prairie oysters. The book also pays homage to teachers and to Alberta's farmers and ranchers."e;I've lived in in the jungles of Peru and the suburbs of Tokyo. I've been to Easter Island, Australia, Egypt, the Caribbean, and Europe. But regardless of where I travel, no matter where I live, my feet are grounded in Canadian soil under the expansive Alberta sky. I value the rural lifestyle and the people I've known since childhood who still shape the person I continue to become."e;
