Ideally, I’d like to be in touch in some way with everyone who stays for dinner. You coming here, reading, and feeling so moved to write me- well that’s one of my truest joys as a writer. I read every comment, every letter, every single thing that slips in my inbox. And I love them.

However, each day over 100 blog-related emails come to me. For the first two years here, I took about 2 hours everyday to reply because it’s intensely meaningful to me to be in touch with the folks who have questions or comments on my particular brand of crazy. As the blog has grown, though, I’ve come to realize that I just don’t have the ability to respond to all of them.

If you don’t hear back from me, please know that I’m putting all of my energy into this blog and writing two books- a weight loss memoir followed by a cookbook.

I encourage you to leave thoughts, questions and the like, in the comment section of posts so that we can all have an open conversation. Perhaps other readers have answers that I don’t. That sort of community- the dinner conversation, if you will- it’ll make this corner of the blogworld a little richer.

It’s sincerely a pleasure that you’re here. Thank you, so very much.
