Here’s what happened last night.
Yep. That’s Ty Pennington of Home Extreme Makeover Edition. Back in the day, my family watched it every week. We loved the story about the families and seeing the house transformation take place in one week.
Ty came to my favorite bookstore, Riverstone Books, to discuss his new book, Life to the Extreme: How a Chaotic Kid Became America’s Favorite Carpenter.
Are you wondering what the big joke is? Well, after we said, “hello,” Ty said, “You’ve got a great voice–all low and smooth. Really good voice for radio.” I told him, “My ninth-grade English teacher told me I had a ‘sexy’ voice.” It’s a true story. One day it was my turn to read out loud for the class. When I finished, BOOM, that’s the first thing she said. Of course, my 14-year-old self wanted to hide, but now it makes a great story!
Fun night with a carpenter/author!
