Oh, Kathrynne, you can't imagine how happy I was to see your name on the screen. I have someone coming in to help me at home, and we are desperate for your cookbook right now! Please tell me how to get it FAST. Too much writing to say why the hurry. Dare I ask that you put one in the mail with a bill, which will be PROMPTLY paid? Loving thoughts & prayers go from me to you re your Mom, and the next steps on your journey.
