We can celebrate together, as long as you don't make me drink ... that library drink you had me try a few years ago. What was it? Something pretty common that most people probably like.<br /><br />Mary, yes, I agree. I enjoy Annette's books.<br /><br />And Mel, next year in North Bethesda? I hope so. And I'll add Andrea Camilleri to my list.
