Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest Is Out!

Okay, I can't draw any kind of association with cooking in Boulder on this one, but today's an exciting day for fans of Stieg Larsson's Millennium trilogy. You can get your hands on a copy in hardback of the third in the series, The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest. Target in Boulder and Superior has it on sale for $16, while it's $19.56 in-store for nonmembers at the Barnes and Noble in Boulder. Online, it's $11.92 at Amazon, $16.34 at Barnes and Noble, but then you have to look at shipping charges (and waiting to actually have it in your hands, unless you pay even less for the ebook). Haven't checked yet with the Boulder Bookstore. If you missed it a few days ago, check out this New York Times article on Larsson.

Perhaps we could draw an association with this blog by starting a discussion regarding coffee consumption and the types of sweets or other goodies that are presented with the coffee in social settings in the books. Sorry, that's a stretch. Another possibility might be the benefits of Boulder's healthy eating and exercise lifestyle, in light of Larsson's hamburger and cigarette habits, and his untimely demise climbing stairs when the elevator was out (see NYT article above).
