This author will be in Fayetteville October 15-16!

The book is available at

Fayetteville High School Library

Springdale Public Library

Right now, it appears pretty scarce in our local libraries, but I have e-mailed Fayetteville Public to learn their plans for providing copies, since they are one of the sponsors of his visit to Fayetteville.

Fayetteville Public Library owns a book club notebook, but no copy of the book.

Movie! Movie! Movie!

Literatae, having just had a lively discussion of Julie Powell's Julie and Julia, is off to the movies! Join us Sunday, August 16 at 1pm at the Razorback Malco Cinema for a screening of the new movie adaptation of Julie and Julia. Then it's on to Common Grounds on Dickson Street for fabulous dessert. And remember Lynn's tip about getting a buy-one-get-free text coupon for Common Grounds at www.collegetokens.com.

If you're wondering about the Paul Prudhomme pecan cake that Julie makes in the book, here's the link: Spiced Pecan Cake With Pecan Icing.
