I ordered the PBS cookbook. What is the time frame for receiving it? Just wondering <big grin>

Not a problem asking, Jenn, it's a question that needs revisited anyway. Most people that ordered the cookbook, know that I became very ill just after we started working on the physical book, and we found the reason finally in April. I had breast cancer.

This of course has further delayed my work on the cookbook, but I am making progress, and feeling like it's going to be coming together soon. The proofreading part has been done, and now I'm in the layout process. I am doing thelayout manually, because there were things that were unfair, in my opinion, that they would have cut out from the cookbook if I'd done the method of letting them do the layout.

So, I'm hoping my extra efforts will make it a better cookbook, for those that have contributed and those that will use the recipes. And be worth the extra wait.

Btw, the time table, will begin when I submit the final copy. Then will take 3-4 wks for the printer. Then it will be bulk shipped to PBS, and they will then ship them individually to those who have ordered them, which will probably be via Media Mail, and take another 1-2 wks.

Hope this all helps. Feel free to contact me directly if you have any other questions.
