First lady Laura Bush has sealed a deal worth millions with Scribner to publish a memoir that will encompass her recollections of personal and historical moments, including her eight years in the White House.
The publishing house, in announcing the agreement on Monday, said the memoir is expected to be released in 2010. Sally McDonough, first lady Laura Bush's press secretary, declined to say how much Bush is being paid for the book but past deals involving first ladies have carried multimillion-dollar payouts.
McDonough said the first lady would work with a collaborator though one hasn't been selected yet.
"As a rare witness to the private moments of one of our country's most consequential presidencies, and as a first lady who has maintained a notable level of discretion, her memoir will provide a candid and personal perspective, and an enduring record, of the years that have already determined the course of the 21st century," said Susan Moldow, executive vice president and publisher of Scribner.

I want fried cheese curds and buffalo burgers. I think those are the 2 I miss the most. I remember being home in Chippewa for the 1st year that buffalo burgers were there. They were 1.50 a piece. The next year, they were 4.50. I never bought another one.
