Well, How Cool Is That?

A couple of months ago, at lauraleacooks.com, I posted "Graham Kerr's Best" as the cookbook of the month, and I emailed him/ his corporation for permission to post a recipe from the book.


This morning there was an answer back, from the gracious man himself, granting permission and giving me his phone number with a request to call him.


It took until after lunch- well, until 10 minutes ago, to be true!- to work up the courage to phone.


And it's all good!


He was so encouraging, and affirming.


He wants to send me a copy of his book, "Charting A Course To Wellness". 


My small efforts, on behalf of healthy eating, are appreciated.


Wow!


I'm still a little shakey!


Graham Kerr is one of my cooking heroes, and I actually just spoke with him on the telephone!


 


Wow
