Zen Wrapped in Karma Dipped in Chocolate

What a catchy title. Brad Warner, the author of Zen Wrapped in Karma Dipped in Chocolate, will be next door at Diesel Books Wednesday, March 18th, to discuss and sign his book. During a year that Warner spent giving talks and leading retreats across North America, his mother and grandmother died, he lost his dream job, and his marriage fell apart. In writing about how he applied the Buddha's teachings to his own real-life suffering, Warner shatters expectations, revealing that Buddhism isn't some esoteric pie-in-the-sky ultimate solution, but an exceptionally practical way to deal with whatever life dishes out.

Sounds good to me, we all need a little help and guidance now and then.

So, when you come by to see Brad Warner, be sure to stop by Bittersweet for your Chocolate Zen first. The signing begins at 7:00 PM, the time when Bittersweet is closing, so be sure to come early to satisfy your chocolate needs, then head next door to satisfy your karmic ones.
