I thoroughly enjoyed both reading the book and your interview. I'll be leading our book clubs discussion this month and they will be interested in some of his comments. AND it's just fun for me to follow some of your work as a grown up! Just read South of Broad and remembered seeing that you had interviewed PC.

Went to grammar school in Bow, NH w/a boy named Hal Mahar. We both graduated from Concord High School in Concord, NH in 1960. Hal Mahar had been my "first sweetheart at approximately age 12. On graduation from high school, Hal signed my yearbook, "My first love affair--lifetime memories." He moved on from Concord High School to The Citadel in 1960. Imagine my surprise to find his name on Page 116 of "The Boo." Have also read with great interest--Pat's cookbook and share his love of cooking and collecting cookbooks. I have a fantastic collection of cookbooks--l0cal, autographed, and lots from other cultures! That struck a fond chord w/me. To think I just by chance picked up a copy of this author's work and not only found a personal connection, but joy in his writing and (sarcastic) sense of humor! Thanks for the connect and look forward to hearing from you w/other authors you endorse! Imagine–
