Laura Purdie Salas: Hello, my name is Laura Purdie Salas. Purdie rhymes with birdy. That's my maiden name and it comes from my father's side of the family, which is German. And Salas rhymes with palace, is my married name, and that comes from my husband's father's family, which is Portuguese. A lot of people get my name wrong. I get all sorts of emails and phone calls for Mrs. Salad, and a lot for Mrs. Salsa. So, I really appreciate that you're taking the time to listen to what my actual name is.
