Blushing In Seattle

Last week Len and I drove to Seattle where my friend, Shirley Hershey Showalter, was speaking about her book, Blush: A Mennonite Girl Meets a Glittering World, an engaging memoir that I thoroughly enjoyed reading.

It’s abundantly clear that she still has the same ready-grin and twinkle in her eye that’s evident throughout her book.
