Writer Wednesday: Time Singer Video
Creating video book trailers is more fun than a peanut butter and banana sandwich. I enjoy searching out photographs to depict the hero and heroine, finding the right music that my gut tells me fits the story, and putting together the words that will pare the storyline down to a nutshell. In the video for… Continue reading Writer Wednesday: Time Singer Video

Vintage Friday: Chicken and Dumplings 1959
Soups and stews have been around as long as cooking. They were among the earliest forms of meals for humankind, easy to prepare and easy to digest.

Mythic Monday: Hocktide
Hocktide, a folk festival held on the second Monday and Tuesday following Easter, is a rowdy celebration pitting men against women in zany fun. First the men play tricks on the women, such as pilfering their shoes or scarves, and then the women perform similar antics against the men. Guess what will reclaim the purloined… Continue reading Mythic Monday: Hocktide

Gimlet is one of my favorites– so refreshing. Martinis seem ultra strong to me, but they’re also the… Continue reading Cocktail Saturday: Tom Collins
