Nine days ago, I awoke as I normally do, did all of the things that fill a normal day and then I received an email. Well, two emails to be precise. The first gave me the opportunity to write my first magazine article and the second was an offer to write part of a book. I can’t go into either one very much at this point, but I promise to fill you in as soon as I can. I have been trying to take a different path for some time now and I think I have finally found my route, it is an exciting time.Thank you for all of the support you give just by reading this blog. Next week I will have a new recipe cooked and ready to go for you.








Dear Erin,
Félicitations! This is not due to luck, but talent and passion combined! I am so pleased for you! It is so well deserved!
I must admit that I was hoping, when I saw the headline of this post, that the new path was one headed for Alameda! =)
Heartiest congratulations,
Donna
Hi Donna, Thank you very much for your kind words and support, it means the world.
I second what Donna has said. Congratulations. This is much deserved and well earned.
love,
Leslie
Dear Erin, Go for it – someone (or two) has obviously recognized your talent. Who knows what lies ahead – writing is something you can do from anywhere. Sharing your passion is what is is all about. Best wishes.
Carla
Thanks Les.
Carla, Thank you very much. I know that if I can spend the rest of my life meeting people and learning about what they do like I have over the last 14 months and especially over the last week, I will be a very happy woman.
Erin,
I always knew the girl that I met that fated October night was destined for great things!! I miss you!! Cannot wait to hear the whole story.
Love Heidi
This is great and exciting and just the merest bit provocative. Can’t wait to see what develops!
Good luck Erv! Can’t wait to read the article, I know it’s going to be Pulitzer material.

You weren’t kidding when you said it had been a banner week! Congratulations, Erin!
Thanks Angela!
Ah, what excellent news! Best of luck in your endeavors! I find the most terrifying adventures are often the most rewarding, though of course I wish you limited fright and maximum enjoyment.
Thank you Miss Ginsu! I completely agree and am doing my best to stop being a giant chicken.
