Day 2, a little about TLA yesterday

Good morning all, and it definitely is morning. The sun isn't even up! I am never awake before 6! Just wanted to share a few things with you. Yesterday, as you know I went to TLA. It was so much fun! I met a few authors:

Cassandra Clare (author of the Mortal Instruments series!!!!!) and she was sooo cool, and remembered me from when we had talked on twitter a week ago!
Jacqueline Kelly who gave out not only free copies of her book, but also pens and coffee cups!
Aaaand Joan Bauer! Author of Hope was Here, Best Foot Forward, Peeled and a lot of other amazing books. And she was the most gracious celebrity I've ever met! She shook my hand and chatted with me about my best friend (who she dedicated my book to--presents!)

And today offers even more awesomeness, because group of you all are coming with me and MEG CABOT WILL BE THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!! Which book should I take to have signed???

DFTBA,
Sti

We ate holiday snacks, sang Christmas karaoke, and had a snowball fight outside! Check out the library's Flickr site for all the pictures. We're taking a brief break during the Christmas holidays, but we'll be starting up again on January 11 with personalizing snack dishes to use every week. Instead of throwing away bowls and cups after our Fr...
