And a good post it is too. I envy your chance to hear her speak.
And your ability to grasp and portray what she had to say so succinctly and cleverly. And write it! Sigh. The number of ideas for posts about talks or readings by authors that I planned or promised myself that just didn't get off the ground… bleah.

See what I can do about the recipes...
