- I was off yesterday—but I heard that your program at Main was a marvelous hit! Really grateful to you for all of the great programs you offer!  Best, Justine

- Everyone loved the program! Thank you for coming to Mission Library.
Thanks, Paulina

- Thank you for presenting your program Herbal Lotions at Murphy-Wilmot Library. You did a fantastic job and everyone who came was very excited to learn how to make herbal lotion. I felt it was very successful. I originally planned for teens but clearly there is a niche for our older female customers who loved your program and asked for more J.
All the best, - Ingrid
