Yeah yeah, I know we talk about 826 Seattle a lot around here. We can’t help ourselves–it’s just so much fun, and a bunch of us are volunteers. I personally am there every Saturday afternoon, bungling the cash register and counting t-shirts. Except that I’ll be in Boston this Saturday, and you know what I’m going to miss?

I’m going to miss the 826 space hosting the second annual Edible Book Festival. Damn.

Oh, don’t look at me like that, all, “But samantha, what do you mean by ‘edible book’?” “It’s just what it sounds like. It can look like a book, pun on a title, refer to a character, or just have something to do with books– whatever the inspiration, it must be edible.” That’s right, friends, it’s books that you can eat. If you bring an entry you get in free, and if you’re just there to taste it’ll cost you $5. The viewing starts at 2:00 on April 1st, and eating will begin promptly at 3:00. If you think you’ll be making something, let them know now so that they can keep a space open for you.
