This is so cool! I'm thrilled to pieces.

I see the ceremony is at the Palmer House in Chicago -- I had brunch there once ions ago. I'm not sure of the protocal for honorees, if they are staying as guests -- are they on their own dime, or does SWFA pick up the cost? It's $249 a night, which is extravagent, but it might be worth pitching in to help defray her expenses.
