This week, I appeared on three radio shows:  WNYC’s The Brian Lehrer Show, Martha Stewart’s Living Today and The Joy Cardin Show on Wisconsin Public Radio. In case you missed them, you can tune into the public radio shows right here.

Here I am on The Brian Lehrer Show. I met him in his studio for a live interview. Can you tell I was wearing big headphones and grinning at him the entire time?

Click here to listen to me on The Joy Cardin Show. (It’ll open up a ram file, so don’t be alarmed when a new window pops up. Just click ok.) I wasn’t able to travel to Wisconsin for this interview, so we did it over the phone, and I was on for an entire hour! Talk about a hot ear! So many listeners called in to share personal stories. One of the great things about doing interviews for my book is hearing how it inspires people to remember their own grandmothers.

Unfortunately, the Martha Stewart show isn’t online, but Mario Bosquez was a great host. I felt like I was sitting at the kitchen table with him, just chatting like old friends. Only, his kitchen table has lots of buttons and lights, and it comes with big fuzzy microphones, and head phones, and a sound engineer, and a producer.

Ok, I’m finished talking for the week. Good too, since I have a million presents to wrap. Hope you’re enjoying the run up to the holidays and are steering clear of the mall madness. If you’re at home stitching or knitting or baking or just wrapping those last minute gifts,  I recommend a nice red with stitching, a white with knitting, a cocoa with baking and a martini with wrapping. Or, at least, something. Cheers!
