Ree's Book Signing - MOA, MN

Wow! What a day! I didn't know what to expect....

The Pioneer Woman - Ree Drummond - was at Mall of America (MOA) in MN on Saturday November 21, 2009 as part of her book tour promoting her new cookbook, The Pioneer Woman Cooks. Love her blog and love to try new recipies. When her book was available for preorder, I jumped on the bandwagon and ordered two - one for me and one as a Christmas gift for my good friend. Once I found out one of the stops for her book tour was Mall of America in Minnesota, I had that day marked on my calendar over a month in advance.

New things...!

On Veteran's Day, My friend M came down to visit for the afternoon. We were planning on going to Applebee's for their veterans meal special, but alas there was a line out the door when we got there. That's what you get when you have a VA Hospital in town. Hubby thinks they were probably bussing veterans over there during the day. E decided to fall asleep before we got there. So after deciding to go elsewhere, she suggested a small adventure. Thought what the heck. Asked her what she had in mind.
