Coping with depression by baking 106 types of Martha Stewart cookies in 2 months. "All about the time I attempted to bake 106 different kinds of Martha Stewart holiday cookies in two months. People laughed and said I was crazy. Well, I was crazy."

The Martian Child, by David Gerrold. It's a funny and sweet story about a single dad adopting an eight-year-old. It's based on David's adoption of his son, so you get exchanges like:
"Did you read all these books?" The inevitable question of the nonreader.
"Even worse. I wrote all those books."
He gave me a look of disbelief. "Nuh-uh! No, you didn't!"

I've also been reading more fun mysteries. Most recently Sharon Kahn's series about Ruby, the Rabbi's wife. Actually, even in the first book she's a rabbi's widow - but everyone at the temple expects to act as if she still was a rabbi's wife, up to setting her up with the new rabbi. If you like comedic cozies, check it out.
