Where I’ve been…

Portland and Seattle and San Francisco. And right now I’m in Los Angeles. And in a few days, Utah and then Chicago. Phew! I’ve never traveled like this before. But, I’ve been having tons of fun meeting everyone who’s been so sweet to come out to the Williams-Sonoma stores to say hi. It’s really overwhelming in a pinch me kind of way. I hope you guys are having a good time, too.

I’m trying to get lot of pics along the way, but I’ve got to tell you – narrowing them down for a post is super tough. So I picked out some random ones and then made a slideshow for each city that you can view if you want to see even more. Feel free to grab any pics of yourself from the slideshow on flickr if you like, too. Enjoy!

This is Tigard – near Portland. There was a line when I arrived. A line. Crazy.

The first book I signed came with a sweet gift. Literally. Chocolates wrapped as little books. SO cute.

Okay, these girls are too adorable. I want those black rim glasses. But somehow I don’t think I would look as cool.

After Seattle we headed to San Fran.

The Williams-Sonoma in Walnut Creek gave me such a cute greeting.

I love this. A couple came to get books signed to ship to their friends in Dubai. Amazing.

Every bit of every minute has been so memorable and exciting. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
