She frequently makes appearances at local bookstores and even at my favorite local nursery to talk about herbs. And she's a pretty good writer.

I guess I only knew the name of the town from songs! Second, I always assumed that Susan Wittig Albert was British-something about her name-now I find out she is from Illinois! This sounds like a good story in which I could also learn more about Texas.
