Checking Facebook On an Empty Stomach

Kristen Pettit was the editor of Thirteen Reasons Why. Even though she's now working at a different publishing house (I won't tell you which one because I'm a Penguin to the core!), we've remained good friends ever since.

Earlier this week, Kristen posted a photo on Facebook. Attached to the following photo was the caption: "Likely the last homemade pot pie of the season."

The last? As in, no more? But what if I wanted to try one? Sure, Kristen lives in New York and I live California, but knowing that was her last pot pie of the season made my tummy rumble.

So Kristen and I bantered back and forth in the comments section (click the above photo to see how that went), and soon she was posting step-by-step pics of the pie's journey from NY to CA.

(She just had to sneak in a pic of her new publishing house.)

 

The very next day, I opened that very same box.

JoanMarie and her mom were at The Great American Melodrama, so the first helping went to Isaiah. The chicken pot pie more than passed the 2-year-old test.  (My son is 2-years-old, not the pie. The pie was only 2-days old!)

And then it was my turn...

 

The eyes say it all!

Thank you, Kristen!
