Strombeek's AWP Swag

If there's anything Strombeek loves as much as food, it has got to be books. 

So she was pretty excited when I came home from the AWP conference with all this swag.

You might think that she doesn't look that excited--that in fact she's eating her food and ignoring the books, but just wait. 

See, on top of the stack of books I have placed Strombeek's treat ball, and she doesn't even notice!

There are treats inside it and everything. And she's more interested in the books!

Though she does notice it eventually.

Then she's like, Oh, hey. Would you look at that! Treats AND books! Talk about a lucky day.
