O my godness ! She was the lady with the polish at the NBC Show right? she was soooo nice.

NOPE...not Jan Brett! This lady was the author of a photography book called Fairily Fowl?? Or something of the sort. She was so kind...worked her chicken off!! I think she photographed like 40 or more birds today

Wasn't that the woman that wrote "Tillie Lays an Egg" ?
