The first person I get to intrude upon is Erin Dionne, author of the terrific Models Don’t Eat Chocolate Cookies.
Erin -
Erin lives outside of Boston with her husband and daughter, and a very insistent dog named Grafton. She roots for the Red Sox, teaches English at an art college, and sometimes eats chocolate cookies.

In MODELS, Celeste's aunt "helpfully" enters her in a modeling contest for the Husky Peach line of clothes - and hilarity ensues. Celeste confronts nasty diet drinks, mean girls at school, skinny women in black clothes, and a fair-weather friend.
But it's not all bad news ... she may even end up enjoying herself.
Thai food or Chinese?
I like them both, but I have to go with Thai. Pad Thai is so delish!
