And, in 5-4-3-2-1 … OK, we’re back! Thanks for tuning in. As you may have noticed, the blog went dark in August. I overheard the blog, which is very into its Polish heritage, mumble something about being on “holiday.” OK, blog, you’re in America, now. Time to buckle down, OK?

 OK, OK. Enough blaming the blog. What happened, as many of you know, was that my family got hit with a double whammy of devastating events just as “New York Curiosities” was hitting store shelves. I had to cancel the book-launch party and return to Rochester to be with my family. A giant thank you to everyone for the thoughts and prayers. I’m proud to report that we’re on the road to recovery now and everyone is doing well.

And now, it’s fall, my favorite season. With my family situation stabilized, the blog and I can pick up where we left off: celebration and shameless self-promotion!
