Hello!

I am hoping it's ok to reveal the cover image of the new upcoming book Willow Finds a Way!  It will be released in Spring 2013 and I am pretty sure the publisher is circulating it around, as it has already been picked up for North American French rights by Les Editions Scholastic! Yippee!  It would be so nice if this one was also picked up in Korea and Japan like Willow's Whispers was and vice versa, if Les Editions Scholastic went back and picked up Willow's Whispers to do en français, n'est ce pas?  Mais OUI!

Today I made bread! It's very exiting! It is a recipe from a book called "Artisan bread in five minutes a day" by Jeff Hertzberg and Zoe Francois, the basic boule loaf. I haven't even tasted it yet but it looks lovely resting on the stove. This is my first bread baking experience and so far so good! The recipe makes a wad of dough you keep on the fridge and bake whenever you want. Love it!
I am blogging from the iPhone and the pics are NOT  the best but it is convenient! My dear brother handed down to me his older canon rebel which I need to get used to because it takes marvellous pictures- Lucky me!
I also made homemade deodorant and lip balm! My friend Sally gave me the recipe for the deo, which is awesome and so simple. It totally works!  I am on this homemade stuff kick lately and it's really fun. After finch gets off to bed, doing this stuff gives me a sense of accomplishment after a long day doing everything on a toddlers timeline.
