My Book Launch Celebration at Perfect Day Cakes in Owatonna was a big success in more ways than one. First, the turnout was greater than I had dared imagine. Second, many of my family, especially Mom, were present to share the experience with me.

Third, dozens of friends came to show their support and buy a book. More importantly, the surprise highlight of the day was a visit from my first Little Brother, Zach!

Most importantly, I was able to donate the first of what I hope will be many hundreds of dollars to Big Brothers Big Sisters of Southern MN. Counting $1.00 per copy sold plus incredibly generous extra donations from several people, I easily reached my target goal of selling enough books to meet that milestone.

Below are photos of the two dynamos who make Perfect Day Cakes and Bakery a wonderful asset to the local business community.

If you missed the Book Launch Celebration, I’ll be signing books at The Little Professor Book Center in Owatonna from 9:00 to noon on Saturday, June 4. Come on down, buy a book, and browse Owatonna’s wonderful Farmers’ Market across the street in Central Park.
