A couple of times I have been lucky enough to have my blogging friends come to Kansas City to shop and eat and meet. There is nothing I like better than being able to show off this terrific city. Do save the date, November 5th, to meet the lovely, gracious and talented Emily Evans Eerdmans (I know these things are true because I have met her on her home turf) when she is here signing her newest book, The World of Madeleine Castaing. Better still, she will be doing so at Parrin & Co. at 45th & State Line. All the dealers will be open with spirits and snacks and Rainy Day Books will have copies on hand for Emily to sign.
