    Talk to me


    I know a few things about the people who stumble onto this site. I know, for one thing, that you're an elite crew.* I know that most of you are from the United States. And that every now and then someone from Spain or Australia or the Philippines or the UK drops by. I know that some of you come here looking for sweet potato recipes or for Alex or for Alex's sisters or for book reports. I even know some of you in real life.

    But I'd like to know more about you.

    Who are you? What brought you here? What was the best book you read in 2006?** The best movie?** Do you have a blog? Where is it? Do you like ice cream? (I do.)

    It's National Delurking Week***. Give me a little shout out, will ya?

    *that's just a nice way of saying I don't get much traffic

    ***a thing I saw at Paper Napkin

  • Amy says, "Obviously, I read your site because I'm obsessed with you...and we're friends. My favorite books was The Glass Castle and favorite movie was The Departed or Stranger Than Fiction. And I LOVE ice cream." (10:11 AM, January 10, 2007)  

  • Angela says, "Favorite book? Fall on Your Knees. Favorite movie? Little Miss Sunshine, although I watched it in 2007... And I stop by your site because your kid is cute and we share an affinity for Shakespeare's Pizza!" (1:45 PM, January 10, 2007)  

  • Sandi says, "I come to your site because you make me laugh -- yours is probably the most interesting blog that I read! Favorite book...that's a hard one -- I just got done reading Blue Like Jazz which I found really interesting. Favorite movie...? Hmmm...I can't remember what I've seen -- maybe Superman Returns? I do like ice cream but don't eat it too often." (3:21 PM, January 10, 2007)  

  • Whatif says, "I read your blog because you are an important friend to Amy and Amy is an important friend to me, thus you are important to me. And I find your writing witty, humble and your adventures in cooking fun. The best book I read was 'Breaking Trail' by Arlene Blum...but I read a lot of books, that was the one that was most recent that I can actually remember the title. Best movie is probably Stranger Than Fiction. Or Connie and Carla - but that's a continual choice. I don't blog. Of course I like ice cream. I'm dating Ben and Jerry for heaven's sake! (Oatmeal cookie - DE-LISH.) Oh, I do have one suggestion. You need to introduce some Cake into your shuffle repertoire." (3:51 PM, January 10, 2007)  

  • Crutcher Fam says, "did you just accuse me of lurking? :) j/k I read your blog--sometimes I'm a slacker but I get myself caught up eventually! :) Love icecream--cake batter at coldstone is delicious! :) favorite movie? How 'bout the Holiday. Favorite book? oiy. did i read a book this year? surely I did. Currently all that is coming to mind are children's books. i'll have to get back to you on that one. how sad is that?" (9:07 PM, January 10, 2007)
