I'm home! Hubby and I spent a very enjoyable ten days in Phuket, and now I'm dealing with the fallout...mountains of laundry. I also have a couple of writing-related things that are quite important so this post will be a short one. I'll post the results of my reading...
I went off to my favorite café today, armed with my writing notes, and ordered a latte and a blueberry muffin. I love blueberries. They taste good and I hear they’re full of healthy stuff. But here’s the thing. How can a café call a muffin blueberry if it doesn’t...
Yes, it's true. I did a bad, bad thing...according to hubby. He arrived home from golf and spoke to me in a very stern manner. My transgression? My sock sorting skills are below par. To his horror I matched a plain brown sock with a different brown sock that bore a...

I'm so excited - no, I haven't sold another book. In fact I've been receiving a lot of rejections, but I'm not talking about those today. No, I'm not. Hubby came home last night and said, "How would you like to go on holiday in September?" "September?" I said. "I...
I've been thinking about food a lot this week, mainly because I'm having a bit of cut back and watching what I eat. I like food. One of my favorite meals is pasta. I love pasta and can eat it for several meals in a row. It's a real comfort food for me. I'm also a big...
