Thanks so much ladies! 

I can't wait to get my Bean Pot.  As a born-and-raised New Englander, it shall take pride of place on my bookshelf!  [dancing, dancing!]

It has been a week of just fabulous news.  First came RT's 4 1/2 stars & selection of One Good Friend Deserves Another as a top pick for June (I adore that reviewer!  ).  And now Publisher's Weekly just put out their review:

I'm honestly walking about three feet off the ground. Thanks for sharing the moment!
