So I’m finally home from sales conference! My head is abuzz with new titles,
and I keep interrupting people to excitedly tell them about a new book coming
that they definitely HAVE to read (this is very annoying to my friends, because
the books are never published yet).
I took a day off last week to recover from jetlag, and to decorate my apartment
for Christmas. I’ve been using this advent calendar for the last few years, so
it’s out, and I decorated my little potted Christmas tree, so I’m all set. I also
started plotting recipes for my annual Christmas party, which always includes a
big vat of mulled wine. I love December!
