For reasons too mysterious to explain, I’ve decided to go big this month and award some extra chocolate just because.
So I’m happy to announce that April’s chocolate winners are:
JANET!!
KIMMY!!
JONE!!
FARIDA!!
And one secret winner who will just get random chocolate and never know why. Bwaa-haa-haa.

Yesterday I had the pleasure of attending a Bar and Bat Mitzvah for four 18-year-olds. My friend Amy Hirshberg Lederman (who, by the way, just won the Rockower Award, which is the Jewish version of the Pulitzer–yowza, Amy!

Two books about supernatural boyfriends this week:
New Moon by Stephenie Meyer and The Mediator, Book 6, Twilight by Meg Cabot.
