Yesterday… It started with promise, my grandsons excited about the prospect of finally getting their day at the beach, my month-old granddaughter caring less about anything except having a clean diaper and a full tummy. The day did not disappoint. It almost did at times. And it threw us some curve balls. But all in […]
FALL IN LOVE IN AFRICA #giveaway
Last weekend, I discovered that Netflix has a new movie releasing November 1st. I can’t wait! Holiday in the Wild looks like such a fun movie, and it’s set right here in Africa… actually, in the land of my birth, Zambia. To be honest though, when my son told me it had orphaned elephants, the […]
Of Babes and Book Babies (plus cover reveal)
We all love babies, don’t we? And the anticipation of their arrival… Two weeks ago, we had my daughter-in-law’s baby shower. It was wonderful and I was able to hand over the myriads of pink and frilly clothes I’d been buying for months…from the day after we found out that we’d be blessed with our […]
Home is where your story begins
I have several vinyl texts attached to the walls of my office. One of them (pictured at the bottom of the meme above) says, “Home is where your story begins.” After looking up who the quote was attributed to, I had to wonder who Annie Danielson was. So I did some Googling and discovered the […]
Chapel Cove is growing (#giveaway)
There’s a new doctor in town, and Chapel Cove is growing. So is Choose Me, book 4 in the Chapel Cove romances. When I first started writing this story way too many weeks ago for my liking, I wondered if I’d manage to get a 35K novella out of my ideas. Well, my characters had […]
My Big Fat Greek Reception
Last month I blogged about My Big Fat Greek Wedding, and I promised you I’d get to the fun part in this blog. But instead of titling my post My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2, I thought My Big Fat Greek Reception was more appropriate. So, picking up where I left off, after the bride […]
My Big Fat Greek Wedding
Well, not MY big, fat, Greek wedding, but the first Greek wedding I’ve attended… That happened on Saturday when the daughter of my husband’s cousin got married. It was fun, fun, fun! Today, I want to tell you all about it. The morning started off with a frantic dash to town for hubby and me. […]
The Power of Three (and #giveaway)
We’ve all heard and seen and read about it…and I just did it! Some call it the Power of Three, others the Rule of Three. But by whatever name you refer to this phenomenon, things that come in threes certainly seem to be way more effective and memorable. A sequence of three seems to stick […]
When life begins at forty… #giveaway
Way back in September 2000, I turned forty with a bash! Surrounded by family and close friends, I hosted a fun “Color Me Forty” party. I donned my brightest, most colorful blouse, and we had a lamb roasting on the spit while we sat outside under our large willow tree drinking brightly colored sodas, playing […]
Pheromones — Good or Bad? #giveaway
We’ve all heard about the fascinating chemical secreted by animals (and humans too). Pheromones act as a signal to attract males and females to each other, and as romance readers, we’ve seen them at work between the pages of the love stories we so enjoy. But pheromones don’t only induce feelings of love and flitting […]
