Yes, I've been busy. And yes, I am so lame for not posting the photos from my book launch in September. All I can say is – this has been a crazy busy time! But enough of that.
The launch was amazing! I'm very grateful to everyone who came, and I sure hope they had fun, because I know I did! So without further ado...
The author/illustrator in all her glory.
There was Pirate & Penguin cake! (Damn, it was good).
And penguin cookies!
And pirate cookies! (The cookies were amazing. If you ever need specialty cookies or cakes made for an event, I highly recommend contacting Samantha from Flour Fancies. She is one very, very talented young lady!)
Cutting the cake with my pirate at my side (I think this should be our new official wedding photograph, don't you?)
People came to buy my book!
The obligatory Pirate & Penguin Gothic photo (as opposed to American Gothic).
Coming very soon – photos from Word on the Street! (I won't be as lame and take so long to post 'em, I promise!
Oh I *love* those cookies. Too cute.

So sorry to have missed it.
Would have loved to have seen you - and met the pirate!

Wow, terrific photos, Mrs. Pirate!
Once again, I've said it before -- I so wish I could have been there.
I WANT SOME OF THOSE COOKIES!

Trying again:
Did anyone eat those cookies and the cake? If I were there, I wouldn't have let you even cut the cake. They look so lovely - how can one cut/eat it?
And the author/illustrator looks so happy and proud too!
Congrats!!

Jean, it was hard to cut the cake, but not that hard to eat it! All the food was consumed in record time, trust me. DEE-lishush!
Ah, Cippy....you would have had a blast!
