My sincerest wishes for each and every one of you that all of your wildest dreams will come true in 2009! 

I’m really loving this right now. Listen on a cold winter’s night with something warm to sip and something soft to cuddle.

I’m looking for a few good canners. Each book in my series will profile folks who are doing whatever the book topic is about. In this case, it’s home canning and preserving. So, if you’re a canner, or someone in your family cans, or you have a buddy who’s homemade pickles make summer worthwhile, I’d love to connect with them. Either post a comment here, or write me directly at: amadams26@hotmail.com. All it takes is completing a short questionnaire and sending me a good digital photo of your glorious face! Come can with me! (That last sentence seriously deserves strong consideration for “dorkiest blog sentence EVER!” Apologies.)

An aromatic welcome.
