Peeps! I’m going to be selling and signing books on Saturday, November 12th at the Downtown Austin Farmers’ Market. I’ll have a booth in the center of the park next to the Edible Austin booth, from 9am – 1pm. I hope you can stop by and say hello, and buy some yummy local foods while you’re at it!

Actually, I’m pretty much always that goofy. Thank you to everyone who attended the event! I got to see old friends and new friends, and meet so many great people (Hi Paige! Hi Aimee!
