Holiday Shopping with a Dragon…Say What?
Is all your Christmas shopping done? Well, if it isn’t, I’ve got a great tip for you this week on Dragon Tip Tuesday. One that will help you avoid the hot tempers and long line-ups this holiday season…
Tip #56 – If you can swing it, convince a dragon-shifter to accompany you while Christmas shopping. He’ll not only carry all the parcels, packages and bags, but cut the amount of time you spend shopping in half by drawing a crowd. An excellent holiday distraction. Especially since it’ll ensure you end up at the front of the line and out of the store lickety-split fast…every single time.

Dragon Tip Tuesday – A Christmas Tangle
It’s that day of the week…Dragon Tip Tuesday is here again!
Tip #55 – Never ask a dragon to help you put up Christmas lights. If he doesn’t get tangled up in the LEDs, he’ll engage in what he considers “a little harmless fun”. Like using the long string of lights as a lasso. And once he starts roping and hog-tying innocent pedestrians—all the while yelling yeehaw!—look for the police…and an arrest warrant. Both will be banging on your front door in no time at all.

Thanksgiving on Dragon Tip Tuesday!
So you’re having a Thanksgiving party? A little advice on how to make it the best ever on Dragon Tip Tuesday…
Tip #54 – Trying to get a dragon to attend your party this year? Dragons love a little razzle-dazzle, so when planning the big event, go all out. Good music. Fine wine. Great food. Oh, and put some Guinness on tap and fancy decorative streamers up as well. You’ll attract a dragon-shifter in no time…his pals too. Just BEWARE. When the party gets rocking, you might loose a few shrubs (or ahem, the neighborhood) when instead of watching Thanksgiving footfall on TV, they start a pick-up game in the backyard using a fireball.
The fire department on speed dial…always a good thing with dragons around.

Dragon Tip Tuesday!
We’re going a round with common sense this Dragon Tip Tuesday. Short and sweet, but good advice. You’ll live longer.
Tip #53 – Never prank a dragon. He’ll stomp on you first and ask questions later.

Remembrance Day: a Dragon Tip
In deference to Remembrance Day–this week on Dragon Tip Tuesday…
Tip #52 – Dragon-warriors always remember the fallen and celebrate their veterans. So if you are ever lucky enough to be invited to the Wall of Warriors inside a Dragonkind lair (a sacred place where they honor their dead), bring a single yellow tulip to lay at the foot of the wall to show your respect. They’ll love you forever…always a good thing, a real ace up your sleeve when dealing with dragons.

Dragon Tip Tuesday – A Lesson in Preparation
We’re so close now. Just a week away from a whole year of Dragon Tips. Think of this week’s tip on Dragon Tip Tuesday as a warning. Or perhaps a lesson in self-preservation and well-executed preparation.
Tip #51 – When planning a road trip with a dragon, pack plenty of snacks. The last thing you want is him looking at you thinking, “hmm, magically delicious” when hunger strikes and his stomach growls.

Dragon Tip Tuesday Hits 50!
Dragon Tip Tuesday hits number 50! Wow! Can you believe it? Just two weeks to go and it’s official…a whole year of dragon tips. This week, we’re talking about sleepovers. Or rather the art of the perfect lust-over…
Tip #50 – When invited to a dragon’s den for a nightcap, be sure and bring an overnight bag with a few days worth of extra clothes. You’re going to need it, because once over the threshold and into his domain, you won’t be leaving until he lets you go. And if you’re really, REALLY lucky, that won’t be for a while.
** Sigh. A girl can but hope…right? **

This week on Dragon Tip Tuesday!
It’s that time again…Dragon Tip Tuesday is here! This week we’re talking green dragons…
Tip #49 – If you ever come face-to-face with a Green Dragon, don’t…whatever you do…light a match. The combination of his gas-filled, venomous exhale and fire don’t mix. Unless, of course, you’re looking to make flamethrower and the neighborhood go BOOM!
