Brr, brr, brr.

It's COLD out here!

That's what winter is, I know, I know, but it still doesn't stop me from remarking on it.

Like everyone else, I've been running crazy preparing for the holidays, and I'm in really good shape gift-wise, which is a relief. My cards have gone out, my baking list is made and the gala New Year's Eve dress is hanging in my closet. (Well, there's two, actually. I'm still deciding between them.) So I'm right on track. Yay!

**Anyhow, in more timey news, tomorrow (Friday) morning 12/10 at 9:30 I'm going to be sitting in with the Mehoopany Library Book Club and we'll be talking about How It Ends. It's free and very informal, mostly questions and answers, because I really want to hear what you think, what touched you, what made you mad, etc.. So, come on down, have a cup of coffee and join in the discussion. It's a multi-generational book, recommended by readers for mothers, daughters and grandmothers too, available at Borders, B&N, and Amazon.com. 

Also, if you've purchased any of my books for holiday gifts this year, bring them down and I'll be happy to sign them. I'm looking forward to seeing you there!
