Day Late, Dollar Short

I'm sure you've heard the saying, I was a day late and a dollar short. Since I don't choose to do anything terribly normal or at least not normally cliche, I was EIGHT DAYS LATE and who knows how much money I'm short.

Late for what? Well, THE book signing in Denver at the Tattered Cover (which, btw, is a totally rocking bookstore!) by Ree Drummond, aka Pioneer Woman. I know, I know, many of you are thinking, "WHAT?!?! How could you NOT know? Don't you read her blog EVERY SINGLE DAY? Umm, no. I read it a lot of days. But clearly not on the day when she posted her nationwide booksigning tour itinerary. Cause I'm just not that together.

So instead of being a really cool blogger who gets to post pix of the trip to the Tattered Cover, shots of Ree, loads of excited women and babies, I just read about it at Ree's blog, Melissa's blog, and I'm sure plenty of other blogs.

Ironically, I was reading Melissa's blog this morning and thinking how great it was that she got to meet Ree and get her book signed. I was also thinking that it was because she lives in the south and Ree's a southern gal and chances of her making it to the beautiful state of Colorado would be somewhere between slim and none so don't even think about it. Wrong. Phooey.

So I leave you with dust.

  2. I can hardly get a post on my own blog lately, much less keep up with all these snazzy popular blogging divas.

    But I would have loved to get a copy of her cookbook and tell her how GREAT she looked in Southern Living.

    Of course, Austin was probably on her book tour, too - and I probably missed her there already also.

    You and me, Bunny. We seriously need to write that children's book series with our spare time, right?!

Make my day
Come on, leave me one.

p.s. - If you ask me a question, please, oh please, leave me your email. Otherwise I can't give you an answer, which makes me feel like I'm ignoring you, and then I feel very bad.
