  1. Oh oh oh! That’s Wednesday? I thought that was on Saturday and I was all bummed out ’cause I thought I was going to have to miss it.

    I LOVED Jessica DuLong’s book – wish I’d gotten to know her better when I was at Pier 63, although I think we didn’t overlap all that much.

  2. Sounds like a great program. I’m looking forward to it. I often have a conflict on Wednesdays but the 30th I’m free.

    I loved Jessica’s book as well.
