Joy the Baker....again

I've said it before and I'll say it again and again.  I love Joy the Baker.  She is actually who inspired me to create this blog.  I stumbled upon hers and just felt like it's okay to make my blog my own style, my writing, my pictures, my words, regardless of how lame they might be  :-)  And if I screw up a recipe, it's ok to own it and publish it.  Been there, done that. 

She came out with her cookbook in the Spring and I pre-ordered it and when it arrived, I was so happy.  I've been watching her blog to see where she was going to be do so some book signings...mainly in California.  Then one day she announced she was coming to Austin. OMG!

The signing started at 7 and I showed up at 4:30.  It's just who I am.

 

So awesome!

Adorable bookmark with her kitty on it.

Joy and I!  Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!

Thank you, Joy, for coming to Austin.  You are lovely.  Thank you also for these Chocolate Raspberry Pancakes.  Very delicious!
