How wonderful! I give thanks to Gina every time I open her fabulous cookbook and start baking! I hope she is doing well and is healthy.
Yippee! A well-deserved honor.
Well deserved and overdue
To quote another Palma, "She's no longer the Susan Lucci of pastry chef nominees!"
Awesome! I am so happy for her, certainly well-deserved.
wow wow wow. What a year for Gina. I found your blog just at the time you were collecting to send her cats back home to her after her diagnosis. If I recall correctly, you're supposed to see her during this trip. How lovely to be able to celebrate this professional accomplishment with her!!!
Wonderful news for Gina - long deserved!
that is great news!
I am so happy for Gina! She so deserves this!
I hope the two of you have a celebratory lunch together.
Stellar accomplishment for our Dearest Gina!
What a different a year makes. Last year in July, I was calling you to find out what you needed to get those cats to her. This year, she's awarded a spectacular award like this.
What a life, what a life...
