Non-Boomer (not even a daughter of one)

I'm a non boomer but my friend Carolyn Howard-Johnson invited me over here and everybody was so welcoming on the Featured Writer board where Carolyn holds court (go Carolyn)--the last time I was so welcomed was over on the William Sadler BB (Bill Sadler is a "boomer" actor from "The Shawshank Redemption"). Also Blackexpressions and I'm white. Go figure. The short list about me from web page :

Kristin Johnson, an award-winning writer and a graduate of the University of Southern California Master of Professional Writing Program, has written about food for LivingRight.com and since her childhood is famous among her family and friends for baking Christmas cookies, particularly the family Nut Roll and German Christmas Cookies recipes. Her cookie-baking and her work on christmas cookies are for giving, led to a feature article in The Desert Sun in January 2003. She published her first novel, Butterfly Wings: A Love Story, in August 2000 and her third book, Ordinary Miracles: My Incredible Spiritual, Artistic and Scientific Journey, a collaboration with two-time Nobel Prize nominee Dr. Rupert A.L. Perrin on his memoir, was published by PublishAmerica in 2004. A produced playwright, she recently began working on her fourth book. She is a busy lady who also maintains Poems For You, a writing business that provides biographies in verse, or celebratory poems for all occasions. She’s involved with her local chapter of Women In Film and the National League of American Pen Women. She currently lives and writes in Palm Desert, California.

Hey, hey, hey and glad to have you....this is the most well rounded group around and I am not necessarily referring to our sizes. But then if the shoe /or corset fits, he he!!! Welcome fellow cookie baker...

Kristen, welcome! There's always room for another cookie baker. Any friend of Carolyn's is welcome here. I hope you enjoy your time here and come back often.

Kristin, how about an autographed copy? I'd love one.

When my children were little we baked like fools at Christmas. We made recipe after recipe and gave them to neighbors and friends for Christmas. We always put a Baby Jesus cupcake in the middle of the cookie platters to spread the true meaning of Christmas.

I'll email you about buying an autographed copy.

I hope you'll stick around and post in the other forums. We love perspectives from other generations!
