Speaking of Blue: Tune in to This Week’s Kindle Chronicles Podcast for Blueberry Pancakes With Windwalker and Len Edgerly
If I say so myself, I think you will enjoy the conversation that Len Edgerly and I had about all things Kindle on this week’s Kindle Chronicles podcast almost as much as Len and I enjoyed the fresh blueberry pancakes I cooked up for the occasion Monday morning. Len should have the show “up” by this (Friday) evening, so click here to listen in and you’ll know the new show is live if you see something like this at the top of your screen:
And by the way, those of you who (like me) follow the Kindle Chronicles closely, should also be able to figure out what, as of this week, I have in common with Steve Martin (as opposed to Alec Baldwin, John Goodman, Buck Henry and Chevy Chase). Sorry Darlene, immediate family members do not qualify.
