Oh! Betsy! We all owe you cupcakes. Or something stronger.
Roger, the heading "fawn-like naivete" says it all. (And by the way, in the photo for your previous post, I thought you were your father.)
Along with the cupcakes (und schnapps?), I think we owe Betsy a big fat bretzel brochen. She has said it well. (I think she must get no more than two hours sleep a night, she has so much she gets done. Amazing.)
I loathed this book enough to never want to see the movie. Glad Betsy took one for the team. I'll help frost the cupcakes--we can put the schnapps in the frosting.
