A Presidential Book Signing


Oh how I love a book signing. I love books and reading and having copy of a book signed by the author makes me happy. I also love Presidential history, the White House and anything else remotely presidential. So, when I found out Jimmy Carter was in town to sign his latest book, I packed up Wylie and a snack and headed out to see a President of the US in the flesh. Luckily I have a great book lovin' friend who comes and hangs out with me in line at book signings, which makes the whole event that much more fun.

Another Day, Another Farm

This time it's "Uncle Mike's" farm where boys can roam around on golf carts, watch model airplanes zoom through the air and pick apples that get made into juice in front of them. We all love a trip to Mike and Caroline's for a weekend. There are always fun adventures to be had and last weekend's adventure involved huge boxes of apples that Mike processed into the freshest, most delicious apple juice EVER.

Date Night

Jacy and I headed to Seattle for a date last night and found our new favorite pizza restaurant. It's a small Seattle area chain called MOD pizza. Hand crafted pizzas made to order and baked in a wood fire oven.
After we had a quick bite we headed up to Seattle's Town Hall to hear Ken Follett interviewed by my favorite NPR guy. Yes, I do have a favorite NPR guy and I was almost more excited to see him in person than Mr. Follett. The interview was interesting and fun. I love hearing authors interviewed about their lives and how they write. I am a sucker for hearing just about any author discuss their stories.
