In the quest to support our ever growing martini habit, Tess and I came with up with the brilliant idea of responding to Rachel's request for the In The Flesh intern job. It really is a no-brainer when you think of it as Tess and I are there almost every month.
Equipped with instructions and a budget from Rachel one of my children and I took an excursion to Trader Joe's today to stock up on the assortment of snacks that will be served at this months In The Flesh Thursday. I also was ordered, I mean asked by Tess to make sure I got those peanut butter cups she likes to stuff herself with.
If you are in NYC this Thursday you really should stop by and enjoy not only all these snacks and one or two or three or four or seven (yes I have eaten that many) of the100 cupcakes served from Baked by Melissa but also the amazing line up of readers she has this month.

The only worry is making sure Tess and I walk, stumble or whatever there by 7:00pm after we first stop at our newest favorite place with the half price martinis and excellent food.
Below is all the information for this months reading cross-posted from Rachel,
I think the outstanding lineup speaks for itself. Plus you can participate! And all the free cupcakes, free board games, and free stuff. BE THERE.
