After two weeks of feeling as though we've been moving through soft butter here in Portland, what with the heat, I'm finally awake, and good thing: so much going on. Have to hit the road tomorrow, to drive to Baker City for a meeting. Looking forward to seeing the Eastern part of the state. My smashing TV appearance of last Friday is online, here; you can hear the lights crashing and a phantom radio come on, a radio that my husband (who was watching as we taped live) said the techie could not turn off and eventually just threw into another room. Oh, and we started the production in a black-out. It was total fun; host Joe Donlon is all-pro and made me laugh a lot. A nickel to everyone who can peg when during the interview my mind went utterly blank!
Biggish news: new food website ZesterDaily.com launches today, and I have a piece up, "Ode to a Greek Diner," about a restaurant here in Portland called Niki's. I'd been to Niki's a few months ago, when I interviewed Adam Arnold. I went back two weeks ago to hang around, and the article is what I found. That's Niki, in her kitchen.
If I can get my edits right, later today I'll have part five of Stott-Smith up, though not about her and her children, but the murder of another child.
