On Saturday morning Yvette and Vianney went over to the historic Pearl Brewery Center. Farmers and vendors were there in the early hours setting up for the Pearl Farmers Market and our authors set up for their book signing. Fellow Latin Kitchen contributor Melissa Guerra hosted Vianney and Yvette at her store, Latin Kitchen Market, where they enjoyed meeting their fans and signing books.
