I just finished reading The Pioneer Woman’s cookbook. Yes, reading. There’s a lot of reading in there. There’s not only recipes, but beautiful photos (of course) and stories and descriptions. It’s a lovely book by a lovely woman.
And earlier tonight, I met her.
My cousin Emily and I headed in to Little Rock this evening for her book signing at Walmart (doesn’t that location just scream Arkansas? We do have bookstores.)
The sky was particularly vibrant just before we arrived.
I got to meet Ruthanne which was equally exciting.
I had to bring the baby. She was squirmy, but good as far as babies go (as long as I kept feeding her cheese puffs).
There were other bloggers there too (shout out in the comments ladies so I can find your blog). I always wondered how many other bloggers were in Arkansas (well, besides those in North Arkansas). I kind of hoped it would be a small crowd.
We waited about an hour and a half in line. And before long we saw a familiar face.
Marlboro Man was there and he was also signing the book.
Pioneer Woman has beautiful hair.
She asked how old Tess was and commented that she was substantial for her age. That has had me giggling all night. After holding her for 2 hours in line I’m acutely aware of how substantial she is!
Ruthanne’s pictures are bound to be better. My camera didn’t like Walmart’s lighting. Thanks for coming to Arkansas, Ree! We enjoyed meeting you.
