Although mom has already posted a couple of times about the Dirty Sugar Cookies virtual book tour, today is the actual day that we signed up to host. Ayun got a pretty sweet deal when she recruited my mom into her PR machine.

Since we have all this fancy Apple hardware and software, we thought it would be fun to do a podcast instead of a regular, written interview. Unfortunately for Ayun, our varying versions of iChat didn’t allow us to do three-way audio, so her virtual book tour became real today. At least she got to bring Milo.

I’ll just say this about Milo: he was wearing a silk vest and cowboy boots, and he has freckles. He wouldn’t eat my chocolate chip cookies (his loss), but he did let me pick him up and throw him around a little bit. I get to see children so infrequently; it’s always a treat for the nurturing type I’m growing into. And Milo is one of the cutest, sweetest tots I’ve encountered.

Without further ado, I present our very first podcast. Because both mom and I have iSight cameras, you should get a snapshot that changes periodically as you listen (if you don’t get this video component, you should download it and open it in iTunes). It’s thirteen minutes long and a rather large file, but it’s worth every megabyte for mom’s campy mugs. Enjoy, and good luck, Ayun!
