MY HERO!!!!

Okay, so for those of you don't know, one of my favorite people in the entire world is Amy Sedaris. The woman is a genius. Although my first introduction to her was through Strangers With Candy (thanks, Heather!), true love happened when I read "I Like You: Hospitality Under the Influence" - her awesome book on entertaining complete with an amazing section on stoner snacks.

So I just heard that she just came out with a book on crafting called, "Simple Times: Crafts for Poor People" and I need this book NOW. More importantly, I really need to find a way to get invited to Amy's (can I call her Amy?) craft club. I think I would make an excellent member. I have an extensive collection of trash I have been saving which I think she would be quite impressed with. Also, if invited, I will bring cheese balls and the fine, aged bottle of pisco (found in N's apartment - origins unkown) that has been sitting on my shelf for far too long. Does anyone have connections to this lady?

Watch this clip from the Today show - she's even more ridiculous than Hoda, in the best way possible:
