I talked to the boss at North Country press today, and was told that "Stories told in the kitchen" is back in print, and at the same low price of $5.95. 28 years in print is quite amazing.
You may order from me or them. They don't do autographs.

Any signed first editions available?

I have one from the first printing. It came from a library and Jacqui got it from Amazon for twice the original price of $4.95. You may have that one for $10.00 including postage, or a newer edition for $5.95 plus postage.
I expect the newest run will be more than $5.95.

I'm here already Sooz, but may be able to arrange to have some sent back in January with either of the UKers who we hope will be in Maine for the New Year.

I can certainly take orders while I'm here though.

Kendall will be taking part in a 50th anniversary celebration of 'Bert and I' at LL Bean in Freeport today.

As of yesterday the power was out at home, after the ice storm so I hope it comes back soon!

Kendall
    Got it! Now I've just got to figure out how to get the Dewey Decimal System stickers off of it without damaging the neat illustration by Tim Sample (is he related to Junior?) of the rockingchair endangered hound.
    I've read as far as the foreword, since I'm saving the stories for Christas Eve and after, one each evening...
    Here's an excerpt:
"...colorful characters like Wallace Mallet who built a coffin with a rudder and centerboard...to sail into the great unknown."

    Wallace reminds me of my Uncle Roy down in Waubeek, Al. whose wife forbade him to go hunting on Sunday. Roy had him a deer stand about a half a mile back in the woods behind his house. After his wife's admonition (read threat), Uncle Roy expanded the platform of the deer stand to reach between the three adjacent Live Oak trees. He added two upper decks, one for a small pulpit, and the other a tiny choir loft. He hauled his gasoline generator out to the stand and wired up a boombox to sit on the choir loft deck.
    Sunday morning when he didn't show up at church, his wife Geneva tracked down him in the deer stand singing bass with the Five Blind Boys of Alabama and beating time on the stock of his old 300 Savage deer rifle.

I could have sent you a pristine copy, but you wanted a first edition, and that is the last one I had. Might be worth more than $4.95 some day!

Wrong Chance - we think that your value as a friend increases year by year.

KendallThey always said, when they made me they threw away the mold. So I reckon I'm a first and last edition.

jacqui.c The same to you, Miss jacqui.c. Tell Kendall to give you squeeze for me.
