Things I Saw

at SCBWI MD/DE/WV!

Before I get to the pictures--I have to say I got to hang out with some of the MOST FUN PEOPLE EVER at the conference last weekend!

Cristin Terrill
Ricki Schultz
Cambria Dillon
Alison Miller

Go to their blogs. Check them out. Get to know them because they are SO funny and sweet and they are all going to be ridiculously successful in the writing world :)

And now, the photographs!

Cristin had this awesome idea to make book cookies to give to people at the conference!
I helped! But she was the real creative genius :) 

Instead of little handheld baskets, the local grocery store had ROLLER baskets! FTW!

We tried to convince the waiter at Macaroni Grill it was Ricki's birthday.
Clearly she wasn't having it.
But our waiter had a bit of a crush and brought her a piece of cake anyway!

After all the cake :)
Room 212... Where the party was at allll weekend.

I swear, I'm more than a floating head with stripes of wisdom in all the blonde. 

Missing Cambria...

Found her!


QOTD: Are you wearing anything green right now?

No?

*pinches you*

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!

    OMG -- your "timer" picture turned out somewhat normal! Fine is freaktastic. At least where I'm concerned.

    All in all, so much fun!

    No green -- gah! And you might literally pinch me when you get here! I'd better go grab something!!

    AHHHHH! I miss your crazy stripes of wisdom like WHOA! But for real -- why do I look like a fuzzy head of fuzz in our picture? Was I rubbing a balloon against my noggin and just FORGOT? Next time...I'll bring a comb. And Alison is totally right -- those cookies were Ah-MAZING! Cristin is Martha Stewart minus the jail time (I think?)

    LOVE!
