The book signing and talk given by Phyllis Hoffman last night (see Wednesday's post) was wonderful. I came home feeling so relaxed. Our oldest daughter went with me, we got seats in the front row---which was cozily set up for about 15 folks or so, and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. She spoke about the book (which I bought as a splurge, very necessary sometimes), and the magazines her company, Hoffman Media, publishes.
What a delightful person she is. Very much at ease, taking time to talk and seeming to enjoy it. Like the best sort of neighbor. The other women who attended were very sweet, the lady sitting next to me talked about her in home tearoom, and others shared stories related to Mrs. Hoffman's magazines.
The bottom line, and the reason for writing the book is to encourage women to enjoy being women. To take time to bring beauty into their homes and to celebrate those sorts of things.
All in all, a restful and great girlie time.
