002 | Spread a Feast of Knowledge
Manage episode 380710519 series 3523085
Hi, Fellow Dad!
Wouldn't you feel great if you could spread a nutritious, delicious feast for your family several times a week? You can--but with something other than food. On this episode of Treasure Box Books Podcast, we discuss some practical, simple ways you can do that, using books!
We're publishing this episode about a month before Thanksgiving, and I'm already feeling excited about digging in to the smorgasbord we set out for our family and guests each year. Thankfully (pun sort-of intended), in Hawaii we don't have to wait until Thanksgiving for big feasts, because a typical Hawaii church potluck--or any get together for practically any occasion--is a lot like a Thanksgiving feast (even though we call them by the not-so-exciting term "potluck").
In today's episode, we're going to think about ways we can spread a feast (of instruction and inspiration) for our families.
Mahalo no ka hoʻolohe ʻana i kēia lā!
(Hawaiian: Thanks for listening today!)
