Update and Fun Friday Winner

Oh man, it's been a crazy week. I finished A SEASON OF SEDUCTION only to realize almost instantly that a big chunk out of the middle of the book needs to be rewritten! So I'm scrambling to get this done before the October deadline. It hasn't been pretty around here!

In any case, I took a short break today to look at all the contest entries, in which you all took the time to send me some fabulous historical romance titles. Many I've already read (and yes, I loved all the ones you...

Luncheon is for Ladies

I'm researching the eating habits of the 1820's. It's easy to find massive amounts of information on breakfasts and social dinners, but lunch seems to be the ignored meal, and I think I'm figuring out why. It's because lunch is for ladies! Its purpose is to provide a light meal. Heh…here's a description of this "light" meal:

London persons breakfast at nine, ten, eleven, and even twelve o'clock and dine at eight or nine. Between these meals comes the luncheon composed generally of cold meats such

Parenting Values

As my hero prepares to undress my heroine in my current book (A SEASON OF SEDUCTION starring Lady Rebecca from A HINT OF WICKED!), I am researching stays (corsets) and how they were worn in the 1820's, and I came upon a story of a mother who has three children, like I do.

Matilda is a fine woman of good breeding, great sense, and much religion. She has three daughters that are educated by herself. She will not trust them with any one else.

Gee, so far Matilda sounds like the kind of mom I am. :) So

Food & Writing Do Not Mix

At least, they don't mix for me. I mean, I don't have time to be a gourmet cook! I hardly have time to go to the grocery store. It takes me a full day to plan and execute a "good" meal. I'm so super jealous of all those writers who can just "whip something up." If I only had that talent!

Anyway, I'm blogging over at Pens Fatales, where I'm talking about my hopelessness when it comes to food and begging for some easy (and hopefully kid-friendly!) recipes. Please come say hi!
