So very kind! "Loon Point" will be released this week, and my publisher sent me these beautiful flowers. (Have they got my number, or what?)

Okay, so I need a legal ruling. According to Felix, it does not count as sitting on the table if he is in a box that is sitting on the table. He says he is in a box, not on the table!

Walking in the woods "up north." (The character of Bud Gustafson in Loon Point was named when I saw this sign.)

Of course, I could be imagining it. But I believe Felix is having as hard a time as any of us believing this year is only a week old.

Stepping out in a used cashmere sweater, my new boots, the scarf my mom gave me for Christmas, and a super fun, hand-me-down skirt from Pauline! (If anyone else would like to mail me fabulous skirts, please feel free!)
