Sorry, mrs D. :-) I'd just like to add that I've been living off of the ginger chocolate chip cookies all weekend. I didn't have turbinado sugar so I used brown sugar, and they turned out well. Next batch, however, I'll use turbinado sugar. Should be baking those later in the week. These cookies are great! Time for yet another cookie . . . Oops. Sorry, mrs D. :-)

Hey Gracianne, when I do more of these, I'll see if I can find out info about what books are available overseas. Worth checking out and listing alternate sources! Also, do try the cookies! Rob, you are so busted for outing my nom de not-blog! :-P (Not that I wasn't going to get around to linking to my other non-food-blog stuff eventually.. .when I get the freakin' redesign done. Web work. Gaaaaaaah.) Oh, and Jay will have to answer the Parking Lot question if he moseys back this way. I'm afraid I've forgotten that particular tale. Stupid swiss cheese memory.

Both the book and the cookies sound great (I am a fantasy sci-fi addict). I don't think I'll find this book here though, but I may try the cookies. A Kalyn says, blog-reading takes time, but a lot of it is pleasure reading as well. I love the idea of merging two of your passions.

On the other hand, I have next to no blog reading time, which means I keep missing out on group events and so on. Hate that! Jay, Rob... the photos are good because the cookies are good, of course, and Rob, what's stopping you from baking some, eh? Hey Katy, I'm too timid to hit up authors I don't know quite yet, but thanks for the link! Hey Kalyn, I know what you mean about pleasure reading time.
