    Hi Virginia – I enjoy your newsletter. You signed some of your books several years ago at my cooking store at Phipps. I wanted to let you know I’m going to a wedding in July at the former site of La Varenne, near Joigny. Chateau de Fey. Didn’t you tell me you were at La Varenne with Anne Willis?
