Okay. I am in an awkward space, sort of still promoting my first book, "Mrs. Rowe’s Restaurant Cookbook: A Lifetime of Recipes from the Shenandoah Valley," and beginning my next cookbook project. I should be getting the contract from Ten Speed any day. I am thrilled to be working with them again—this time on "Mrs. Rowe’s Little Book of Southern Pie," a great title, yes? But both books work together, so it’s not as awkward as it could be.
There are, as usual, plenty of projects on the horizon. I am still working on my essays that I hope to compile into a book and still longing to do more work on Mary Johnston. My article on her in Virginia Living has been pushed to March. Getting that article published is the first step to generating more interest in her.
Well, I am off to the restaurant this morning for a meeting about pie…can’t beat that.
