		<description>Hi Meredith --
I just wanted to pop in and say I saw your Christmas book for sale at my local Publix grocery store here in Georgia. One of the VERY few inspirational books on the shelves.

It looks like a great book. Congratulations!</description>

		<description>Pattie...I love the phrase "stealth marketing"! Now I have a name for what I did with Meredith's first book at every bookstore I found it it ;)

And I do need to get busy on that for this one!!</description>

		<description>Happy birthday on several accounts.  Tell your husband that having crossed that threshold only last month, it's not all that bad. :)

Can't wait to see your new one.  So, does it look like you or more like your husband? :)

		<description>@Home is terrific, everyone. Very entertaining. (I got a preview copy, lucky me!) 

But I will be grabbing a few copies for Christmas gifts for my SAHM friends as soon as I see it!

Tell Jason Happy B-Day! And from your older friend...don't bug him about his age!!!</description>
