Take one very tired and somewhat cranky nanny and give her a ticket to an awesome book event.
Apply awkward quasi-formal wear so that she stands a good chance of fitting in. Bonus: it has pink.
Let simmer for 1+ hours with book lovers, publishers, authors, and other professional nerds. Oh, and add a dash of conversation with Chatelaine's book editor (who adorably introduced me to numerous people as "Cmacmizzle! From Twitter!") Sprinkle with free swag.
Result: One happy book nerd!
The swag was awesome! I am most excited for the copy of The Sweet Girl as it will be my first read from this year's Giller long list. Also - dry shampoo has me kind of intrigued (but in a much different way).
