Just dropping a quick note to let you know I received my copy of La Dolce Musto in the mail today and really, probably shouldn’t have opened it until today’s errands were run. Cannot put this book down! Some of the older articles I hadn’t seen, but [they] cover events or places that were actually meaningful to me at one time or another. And each is as captivating and brilliant as everything else I’d read from Mr. Musto. (Or is it “Ms., motherfucker!”).

Anyway, thank-you for this priceless compilation. I’ll make it a goal for 2007 to track down Mr. Musto and convince him to jot an inappropriately familiar note to me on the inside cover. Maybe ask him when he plans to have another intimate session with Brad Pitt? There’s room in the back for a second inappropriately familiar note…
