NaBloPoMo (11/2015) – Day 5: The best laid plans….
I had plans for today. Part of those plans included searching out some recipes and outlining my blog posts for the next week or so. Recipes were searched and a couple of recipe books were purchased. But, that blog post outline didn’t happen. *sigh* I mean, it’s okay. It’s not like I can’t outline tomorrow,…

NaBloPoMo (11/2015) – Day 4: The Lazy Blogger’s Way to Blog
I’m tired. My brain is fried. Writing a blog tonight is hard. So, I’m going to do it the lazy way. I love this song. I love this version of this song. I’m sharing it with you.

NaBloPoMo (11/2015) – Day 3: “If Only….”
November 3, 2012. Three years ago. That was the day I took my mother to the hospital. That was the last time my mother spoke to me. The last time my mother looked at me. The last time my mother told me – with words – that she loved me. This isn’t a date that…

NaBloPoMo (11/2015) – Day 2: New experiences can be surprisingly tasty
I’m not a drinker. I have nothing against a nice, adult beverage from time to time. But, for the most part, I stick to water or tea…stuff without alcohol. My adult beverage of choice is usually beer. I’m a simple girl. I like Rolling Rock, Coors Light, and Bud Light. In that order. I don’t…

NaBloPoMo (11/2015): Day 1 – Another year, another challenge
Well, we’ve come to another November. For most of my friends, that means it’s time for NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month). Since I don’t write novels, I’ll be sitting that one out. However, NaBloPoMo – or National Blog Posting Month – works better for me. A post a day. Any length. Any topic. I like…

REVIEW: “The Empath” by Jody Klaire
I enjoy opportunities to read offerings from new authors. I admit that I don’t get to do it often. Life keeps me pretty busy. So busy, in fact, that I don’t get to read often at all. Full stop. That saddens me because I love reading so much. Strange. Seems like I had more time…

REVIEW: “Love is Enough” by Cindy Rizzo
Let me get this out of the way right at the top: I don’t like politics. I never really have. That was a tough row to hoe when I was living with a mother and grandmother who spent about 75% of their waking hours watching or talking politics. Don’t get me wrong. That doesn’t mean…

REVIEW: “All We Lack” by Sandra Moran
Rizzoli & Isles is about to finish up its fifth season on TNT. The last new episodes will air next week (March 17) and I’ll be forced to wait until summer for the next season. I started watching Rizzoli & Isles pretty late in the game. In fact, I started watching in the middle of the fifth season.…

REVIEW: “Zero Visibility” by Georgia Beers
The really wonderful thing about Lesbian Fiction is that it has really become pretty diverse in terms of genre.Yes, I think we still have a way to go, but there are more options to choose from today than there were in, say, 2000. Heck, in the last 10 years alone, the Golden Crown Literary Society…
