Oh Jenny, I’m so happy to hear this. Congratulations!

10yo me also sank my teeth into the Bunnicula sequels, HOWLIDAY INN and THE CELERY STALKS AT MIDNIGHT. 🐰🥕

I’m half Finnish on my dad’s side, & my family from the upper peninsula of Michigan has always made a braided sweet cardamom bread we called nisu. When I visited our relatives in Finland, they called it pulla. It’s the best, like challah but dense, sweet and cardamom-y (has eggs & milk in the dough)

Thank you for the advance notice that will allow ample time to place a bakery cake order (says the person who recently ate her entire birthday cake because her other four family members aren’t fond of chocolate s’mores cake!?!)

My firstborn has submitted his college applications…I would like to be included in this starter pack 😂😭

Good thing you were right there when it happened!

Today I laid the foundation for the rest of the month. How about you, Dani?

I’m so sorry. Sending love.

Yes Christiana, I’ll keep your dad’s best outcome in my thoughts and intentions. Hope you’re holding up ok through this.

What?!? Orphan Island is my fave MG book and the ending keeps me wondering. Glad you had an awesome experience!

Hi! Andrew McCarthy is a writer too! I caught him when he came through on a book tour this spring. Same, never thought I’d get to meet an adolescent celebrity crush 🤗
