Comments on: A hedgehog walks into a bookstore … http://www.sheistoofondofbooks.com/2010/07/13/a-hedgehog-walks-into-a-bookstore/ and it has addled her brain Sat, 11 Feb 2012 19:13:37 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3 By: Hilary http://www.sheistoofondofbooks.com/2010/07/13/a-hedgehog-walks-into-a-bookstore/comment-page-1/#comment-46838 Hilary Fri, 23 Jul 2010 03:16:36 +0000 http://www.sheistoofondofbooks.com/?p=11252#comment-46838 Dearest Dawn, As Anne Shirley once said: "I could never express all of my gratitude, not even if I used up an entire dictionary!" We owe every bit of this wonderful event to you, Dawn! None of this would have *ever happened* had it not been for you and your fabulous book blog. You invite Brunonia to write for your blog, she writes about The Spirit of '76, Animal Planet sees mention of my hedgehog...what a wild, strange world we live in! I was so thrilled that you and your brood could come up for the big event; it was really something having you there, as the pivotal piece holding all of us random parts together. I would be remiss in not mentioning that my very good friends Hannah and Katie made and decorated those hedgehog cookies; I lifted not a dainty finger in the food prep! I was busy in hair and makeup (*half kidding; I did my own hair and makeup, Animal Planet just kept blotting my sweaty upper lip.....ah, the glamor of stardom!) You are the BEST, Dawn!!! I will certainly let you know when the episode is due to air! And, of course, let's keep in touch!
