Winner, Silver Medal, IPPY AWARDS (Regional Fiction)
"Elizabeth’s Field captures the realities of pre-Civil War life on Maryland’s Eastern Shore and creates characters that struggle in extraordinary adversity. Lockhart traces the branches of several generations of black families, their histories merging, the memories of their grandparents’ miseries fading yet not forgotten. Her carefully limned descriptions of the land – the profusion of flora and the turning of the seasons – are masterful. Through fully rounded characters and lyrical prose, Lockhart’s novel teaches some hard lessons about man’s inhumanity to man." - Kathryn Lang, former editor at Southern Methodist University Press
"The characters in Elizabeth’s Field are clearly defined and the environment carefully re-created so that we feel we are indeed stepping into the past, actually viewing people behind the gauze curtains of long ago. Weaving the present with the past, Lockhart brings us face-to-face with how slavery has continued to impact people on the Shore. Elizabeth’s Field is a thoroughly readable work, thought-provoking and well-written." - G. Ray Thompson, PhD, professor of history emeritus and former director, The Nabb Center, Salisbury University
Elizabeth's Field is the story of the free black population living on Maryland's Eastern Shore in a county known for being the birthplace of Harriet Tubman. Elizabeth, a free woman of Indian and African-American descent, owns land in 1852 and loses it in 1857. Her struggle to hold onto the land and her connection with Sam Green, the local minister who is sentenced to ten years imprisonment for owning a copy of Uncle Tom's Cabin, attest to the turmoil existing within Maryland's borders. Mattie, the present-day farm worker on whose oral history the novel is based, searches for answers to her genealogical history. As she tells the story of her life, she reveals the societal and agricultural changes that occurred on the same land that was Elizabeth's field one hundred and fifty years before.

Absolutely Fabulous for Any Age - Not To Be Missed
Whether you have a 15-step skincare regime or are extremely low maintenance in your skincare routine, this is a product that is an essential component to a healthy, radiant complexion. I’ll admit, my skincare game became fairly extensive as I approached 40. Prior to that, I had a solid day and night routine using 4-5 products.
After 40, my skin required more effort with a focus on hydration, prevention of damage from sun, stress, lack of sleep, etc., barrier building, and aging gracefully. At 55, people often comment on how nice my skin is and some people think I’m still in my 40s.
I owe that to a fantastic arsenal of skincare products rather than procedures (plus water, solid nutrition, and at least 8 hours of sleep per night). Nothing wrong with getting Botox or fillers, but I’m rather frugal and would rather focus on daily maintenance to ensure my skin looks as good as possible regardless of my age.
This milky toner is as good - and actually better - than brands at much higher price points. It’s thick (in a good way), provides instant hydration, and keeps my skin glowing for hours. I use it in the morning as part of my AM skincare routine, as part of my skin prep prior to doing my makeup, and every night in my PM routine.
Some people use milky toner as a setting spray (mix equal parts toner and distilled water into a spray bottle and lightly mist your face once your makeup is complete). I prefer a setting spray that provides staying power rather than additional hydration, but I have sprayed this mixture on my face if I feel dry and my skin looks parched. It feels really nice on a hot day, especially if you keep the mister cool in the fridge.
I have tried adding drops to my foundation, which is a “viral” trend, but I find this product to be a bit too thick. A thinner consistency like the Byoma Milky Toner works better for me if I want to create a more dewy foundation. I find that using this Thayers product as part of my skin prep prior to foundation along with using a dewy, hydrating foundation is better for me.
I love that this bottle is huge, affordable, easily obtained from Amazon, and incredibly effective. It’s earned its spot in my holy grail products for life.

Gentle Milky Cleanser That Mostly Delivers on Hydration
I picked up the Thayers Milky Hydrating Face Cleanser with Snow Mushroom while it was on sale because I was looking for a non-drying face wash.
Overall, I do like it. The texture is gentle and milky—it doesn’t foam up, feels non-irritating on my skin, and rinses off easily. I also paired it with the moisturizer from the same line (though I skipped the toner since I already use one my skin prefers).
It does a good job cleansing without stripping my skin too harshly, which I appreciate since I tend to lean dry. That said, I do notice a slight dryness after washing and drying my face, which surprised me a bit given the “hydrating” claim.
One other small downside is that the packaging was a bit difficult to open.
Still, overall it’s a gentle, easy-to-use cleanser that feels calming on the skin and doesn’t cause irritation.

Leaves face feeling clean, soft, and smooth
Love this facial cleaner. I actually double cleanse my face. First I use an oil based makeup remover, then I cleanse with this face wash. It doesn’t strip my skin of moisture, and I’ve noticed less redness on my face after switching to this cleanser. The cleanser is light and leaves my face feeling clean, soft, and smooth. I would recommend to people who notice their face feeling “tight” or noticing redness after cleansing.

I love these. Not only do they work at reducing any blemish size and inflammation, they are practically invisible like advertised.
