By Bread Alone by Sarah-Kate Lynch

This was such a surprise book and I just loved it.  I found it at the library and the title got me (not the cover - the cover is awful).  It's a book about a woman going through a life crisis, and the chaos of her life that makes dealing with her crisis nearly impossible.  I loved the quirky characters, living in their impossible house.  I loved the main character, with her impossible cleaning schedule and her obsession with baking bread.  The way the author describes her feelings for her husband - and her husband's feelings for her - were touching and very real to me.  I'll be looking for all of this author's books.
