Sarah Baker's Stories 
Fabulous, Sarah! I love this site. Love the story of the garbage burger. That Anna B – she’s the best. Most everyone I know would have been freaked out about the brief sojourn of the trash. Not her! She goes straight to what matters: taste. Can’t wait to read the other stories. You are well on your way….
Dear Sarah, I so enjoyed our conversation last night at the NEA tent event, and I am so impressed with all the things you’ve done. I was involved in publishing myself a few years back, and dream to do more….
I sincerely hope that our paths will cross again soon.
With friendship,
Neta
Me too Neta! I loved meeting you and your husband (oh so briefly!). Let’s please keep in touch.
And thanks for checking out my blog and liking my photo!
All the best, Sarah
Also, I really love that photo of you.
