She wrote a series of books about witches. I read a whole bunch of them when I was a kid.

I found this one on the street the other day!





































































It's pretty good. (The witch rides a vacuum cleaner.)

FOUND!

I took a different route home from the subway last night, to see what I could see.

And . . . I saw a lot of books (two different batches)!!



This person is a reviewer or works in publishing (they were all advance reader copies of contemporary trade fiction paperbacks).



This person is older. Lots of midcentury books (Henry Miller, D. H. Lawrence. E. E. Cummings), Selections from the Talmud, Richard Brautigan, lots of books about Carl Jung, AND a certain kids' book I hadn't seen in years!

It was awesome.

Later I'll show you what I picked up.

Let your eyebrows grow out



Who cares, right?

(Ha ha giant closeup of my eyeball [with makeup crust]!!!)

Snow today



Raise your hand if you love living by the highway!

[Both hands way up!]

It's so CO-O-O-O-O-O-LD!



Wore my special sox yesterday.

Gingerbread!

Night one (Christmas dinner):



With my favorite topping (plus lemon sauce).

Night two:



Applesauce for me.

Night three:



Still delicious!

No more lemon sauce, but there's still some gingerbread left.

December 29, 2009

Hmm

I found this at the bottom of the laundry pile.



Part of someone's winter food cache?

(I ate it. Sorry!)
