Hey everyone! I'm a first timer, I discovered this community a couple weeks ago and have been giggling at it and reading a shit ton of posts ever since. I was at my mom's house last night so I grabbed one of my old books so I could post. I'm actually really excited this book was on the unsnarked list, because it's a little bit special to me because

“Passports,” said my mom, getting that dreamy look again. “Luggage. Airline reservations...Oh, I do love to travel.
OK, look. I love to travel, I have what my friend dubbed a "flight fetish" and I actually have taken a photo of an aeroplane bathroom (in my defense, I was in premium economy and we shared a bathroom with first class so it was all fancy), but who the hell gets moony over luggage?! Cats sitting in your luggage maybe, but not luggage itself.

He tells her to have fun with Zucchini
That kind of amuses me because it reminds me of that Sarah Palin parody that took the piss out of the fact that she named one of her kids after a type of maths.

What airline was that with nice first class bathrooms? Ours was just a bit bigger than the ones in coach.

[kakeochi_umai]

Air New Zealand. :D If it's any consolation, it also meant longer lines for the bathrooms.

Fair enough. :)

I don't know about this 25 below thing. I live in the Bay Area here in Dawnifornia so our "really cold" is usually right about 32. *Flips long, golden hair. Eats a tofu dog.*

Aaaaaanyhoo! I love that autograph. I wonder what Ann would do today if someone was all, "Where's Ellen? She wrote this thing so I need her to sign in." This needs to happen just to see her reaction.

Also, what is it with these girls and, "Omg it's December and it won't snow!!"? It happened in Babysitters Beware too.

In L.A. we get "cold" at the peak of winter and it's only about high thirties- while the rest of the country is experiencing the real winter. My aunt in Oregon wears T-shirts and does gardening in 40 degree weather. In 40 degree (ok, I admit it guys, don't hit me!) even 60 degree weather I'm cold XD I am moving to an area with snow so I'm excited for some real winters! I need to toughen up! I'm glad it's not really 80 all year like Dawn pretends or I'd be way wimpier.

I love the changing names for Carrot, too!

What was your impression of Ann? Just curious. I used to think it'd be awesome to meet her but now...*snort*

I don't actually remember much about it. I wish I had been all Mallory level weird and wrote myself a story about it haha. I just remember it was at a Barnes and Noble and there were a ton of girls there and Ann was sitting at a table and everyone got to take a turn to go up and she would ask your name and sign your book.

Blech. I live in spooty old Arizona so I can only dream about buying nice coats and getting all snuggly in the winter. In our winters I rarely put on a long sleeved shirt let alone a jacket. It sucks because I really like winter fashion and cold weather and feel like I'm really missing out.

I'm irrationally excited because your name appears to be Marie, which is my name, too! I can pretend MY eight-year-old self met AMM! (Also, I don't meet a whole lot of Maries in my age range--middle names, yes, but not first names.)

Love the veggie dog names, although for some reason Aspargus cracks me up the most.

For some reason, I never remember anything about this book, though.

[xand_so_it_isx]

Omg I know what you mean I never meet any other Marie's, but half the people I know have it as their middle name.

I can't remember much about this book either actually. Like I remember the conclusion of the mystery but not all the stuff that happens in between...or most importantly whether or not it will snow in time for the sleigh ride. I'll try to finish the book and the snark within the next couple days through.
