the book launch

Well what fun the book launch at Teatro Verde turned out to be.  Here’s Sarah Maclachlan the president of House of Anansi with me and my daughter Jennifer Harris (aka prof at U of T) on the left.  this picture was taken by Mark Disero of  gardentoronto.ca who arrived early with Yvonne Cunnington  and covered the event. Left: Michael Pellegrino and Shawn Gibson of  the maestros of TeatroVerde with the enchanting corner they made for me. I was ordered to wear the same colours as those on the cover of Thrifty.

Lots of wonderful old friends dropped in, some new friends made through the book and near as I can tell everyone had a great time. I was too busy signing book or hailing people as they came in the door to enjoy the crowd whooping it up at the bar which was where everyone else was gathered.

The wine was donated by FuZion and it was delicious and no one left til the last drop was drunk. It was a wonderful evening for me.  Go to Mark’s site and have a look at the rest of the party.
