false 251519 17 <b>The following book is also called <i>Sophie's Bakery for the Broken Hearted</I></B> Thirty-six-year-old Sophie Stanton wants to be a good widow-a graceful, composed, Jackie Kennedy kind of widow. Alas, she's been drowning her sorrows in ice cream and showing up to work in her bunny slippers and bathrobe.
