Hey! I was just about to email you....I have a brief window in my
schedule...thought we might be able to finally meet. I'll email you.

I am going to go work for this woman at her workshop. I will make
sure to talk w/ her. I have already told her that I am a
bit 'militant' about mehendi and chemical additives added to the
pastes and she was quite happy when she found this out.

This is just a small informal workshop, and the other mehendi artist
she was looking at having attend wanted $500 plus a minimum of $5 per
piece. Ack! But lucky me.
