We drove to Chatham, New York to have lunch with my friend and free-lance editor Rosemary Ahern, who helps me with my books. She has been a wonderful friend and editor for me, a safe and necessary place in the new world of publishing. On the way back we stopped at a row of shops – and at Jem’s – and we bought four turkey glasses to replace the many glasses we have broken. The proprietor happily agreed to let me take his photo.
