Between Two. And You?
Yesterday was apparently National Dessert Day. And I’m ashamed to say, I didn’t take full advantage of such a “holiday.”
I thought about it, of course.
Even tried to figure out what my all-time favorite dessert is.
I’m still thinking.
Right now, it’s a toss-up between Boston Crème Cake (like they have at Dierbergs Markets in St. Louis–specific, I know) and White Chocolate Mousse Pastry Puffs (which I make).
What’s your favorite dessert?

The Anatomy of a New Series
If you read my page on Facebook, you probably know that I will have a brand new mystery series debuting next June.
The Emergency Dessert Squad Mysteries, as the series is known, will kick off with book # 1: Éclair and Present Danger.
Yup, as my friend, Joe, said when I told him, “Tom Clancy is surely rolling over in his grave.” (I actually giggle every time I think of Joe saying that).
Anyway, this series came about in a rather interesting way. One of Dear Daughter # 1’s oldest friends came...

Reset
If I wasn’t a writer, I’d find a way to bake for a living.
Now it’s your turn. If you had to pick another career, what would you pick?

The Intern
I saw THE INTERN last night. I went thinking it was going to be a cute movie about a senior citizen going back to work.I mean, cute premise, yes?
But honestly, the movie was somuch more than that.
It was about acceptance.
It was about friendship.
It was about love.
And it was aboutwhat I believe is thesingle most beautiful gift you can give a person who matters to you—seeing them, really seeing them.
Wow.
It made me cry. Robert DeNiro was fantastic in this role. And Anne Hathaway was great, t...

The Pen Is In Your Hand…
Question time!
Think about the last book you read. Is there anything you’d change about it? If so, what would it be and why?
