Digging at straws
Ok, I’ve looked elsewhere, but I will leave no stone unturned. Please let me know if this rings a bell – or actually more than that, if you know the novel I am talking about:
I remember reading this young adult scifi novel as a kid (say 1980-1985). The basic plot is a girl goes to some special “institute” or something after school. I don’t recall all the details of what happened there, something special. But, in addition to that, she got Baked Alaska, which was her favorite dessert. I think the Baked Alaska is the key to this mystery. Please help me find this novel!
Anything…?
