First order of business: I’m looking for people — any people — who celebrate (or denigrate) Valentine’s Day. Do you exchange cards or treats or presents with kids, grandkids, girlfriends or guyfriends? Host anti-valentine’s day parties? I’d LOVE to hear from you. Reply or drop a line to my e-mail, jennie.geisler@timesnews.com.

Second order of business: Book Drawing Wednesday.
We got huge response to the drawing for “The Dead Celebrity Cookbook,” by Frank DeCaro.
Darcie Rzomp won the drawing and I’ll pop it in the mail today.

Next week’s drawing will be for "Marshmallow Madness! Dozens of Puffalicious Recipes, " by Shauna Sever
Unique and cutting edge, trendy before it’s trendy take on sweet and savory puffs — way beyond the bagged variety.
The book offers several basic recipes, and dozens of ways to customize them, for example, Buttered Rum Marshmallows, Maple Bacon Marshmallows and S’mores Cupcakes.
If you want the book, drop a line to jennie.geisler@timesnews.com.
Please include your NAME, MAILING ADDRESS and TITLE OF THE BOOK you want, so I don’t get it mixed up with last week’s title.
