| Unlike any other book I know about, this volume offers the nourishment required to sustain us both physically and spiritually. 'Love and Lemon Pie' is an extension of its author, because, like her, it is an authentic expression of love. |

Are you bored with your marriage? Perhaps it’s because your communication consists of a series of lifeless encounters. Are you angry at each other? Maybe it’s because your communication consists of a series of conflicts, petty quarrels, and make-wrongs.
Perhaps we nit-pick and nag about petty annoyances because we are afraid to address the significant issues.
Remember how much depends upon the quality of your communication.
