Her photography section gave me motivation to step up my own photography and I learned a lot from her posts and tutorials.  The tutorials were my introduction to Photoshop: my digital darkroom.  Ree shares bits of her life with her husband and their 4 children on a working cattle ranch.  In the last year she has published a cookbook, a children&#8217;s book and just released &#8211; her own love story and how she came to be &#8220;Pioneer Woman&#8221;.  Although I&#8217;ve read the serial posts which the book expands on, I am just now enjoying the book:  <a target=\"Black Heels to Tractor Wheels: a Love Story\"  href =\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Pioneer-Woman-Black-Tractor-Wheels--\/dp\/0061997161\/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1296756781&#038;sr=8-1\" title=\"Black Heels to Tractor Wheels: a Love Story\">Black Heels to Tractor Wheels: a Love Story<\/a>.  If the stars align and the weather is ok, I will go to the Charlie Russell Art Show in Great Falls, Montana this March where she is to be for a book signing.  I have the Kindle version of the book and don&#8217;t need her signature but hope to meet her and say in person how much I enjoy all that she shares.<\/p>\n<p>I love to cook and good knives are a cook&#8217;s most used tool.  I am thrilled that I won this set and look forward to years of good cooking with them, but the real thrill for me was seeing &#8220;Ann from Montana&#8221; on The Pioneer Woman blog.
