    I read The Wedding Gift when it was out in hardback – it’s a good one! Bread and Butter came in my mailbox recently, too…it sounds like it could be interesting, I’m curious what it will end up being like.

    Enjoy Leslie — I started listening to audio books at work as I am not very busy in summer, and have been finishing about one every 2 days which has been nice.

    Have a great week.
