Img_4992 Img_4992 (Borrowing from the image style formatting of The Radio Girl). My good friend Kelsi recently sent me a little present she thought (correctly) I’d enjoy. She told me I’d know it because it would be wrapped in Christmas paper and sealed with duct tape. Gotta love somebody like that!!!
Img_4992 Img_4992 I spent a day or two just admiring Kelsi’s great wrapping skills before I finally opened the package. Evidently our Radio Girl asked female announcers across Canada to share their most embarrassing “Radio” stories which she then compiled into this very funny book.Having donated a portion of the proceeds to breast cancer research, and having read of my own cancer experience, she opted to send me this autographed edition.

I liked the Radio Girl logo on the wrapping so I converted it into a transparent PNG. Kelsi, if you’d like to have it, just lift it with my blessings.

Thank you so much Kelsi! Perhaps I’ll start sending you pumpkins!
