Summer break!

From July 23 (today) until August 2 (not today) Dirt Candy will be closed for summer vacation. We’ll reopen on Tuesday, August 3. But between now and then I’m off to Italy, staying down around Tuscany, but don’t be too jealous. It’s a family vacation and we’re all staying in one big house in the country together and I imagine it might get all Agatha Christie and only one of us will live to see morning. If I’m not the one who lives to see morning, then Dirt Candy will be closed indefinitely.
