Hi, Debbie -- Thanks so much for your comments. They are very helpful to me. I can see you know where I'm coming from on this! I love to cook, so I will definitely check out some of the resources you suggest. The community on LT is so great. Best, Shannon

yay, I'm so happy you're happy! I was a little worried about that sequel and that maybe you already had it in your stocking. Enjoy!

Just wanted to drop a note to say thanks for the SantaThing picks. The books are terrific choices, and I'm looking forward to reading both of them right away. Thank you very much, and have a wonderful New Year.

Hello! I am so glad you got them (i haven't gotten mine yet either, was starting to worry me) I also really really really wanted to send you 84, Charing Cross Road & The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society. I think you'd enjoy them a lot from what I could see of your library. Do check them out if you ever have a chance!

If you ever go on Deviant Art it's by Martins De Barros and is called "The Art Scholar". Here is a link to his page: http://amartinsdebarros.deviantart.com/ and from there you can request it as a print.
