I finally got to hear most of this podcast. Lee, I am in love with your book and must get a copy for my cat-happy sister. I’m looking forward to hearing you speak at Writer’s Day in April.

After hearing you both talk about making homemade ice cream, I also went out and bought Lee’s book “We All Scream for Ice Cream” the next day!
