talyaEarlier today it occurred to me that having a book signing party at an actual bookstore (especially a local bookstore I love so much – The Capitola Book Cafe) is kind of a big deal. So, I’m really excited and hope you will be able to join me for an evening of education, fun times and delicious food at the Capitola Book Cafe this Thursday, January 31st, at 7:30pm. It will be my biggest book signing to date of my recently published book,The Ayurvedic Vegan Kitchen. Books will be for sale and I will be signing them : ). Hope to see you there!
