The week of Christmas is going to be a short blog week because I always wait until later to talk about my family and husband. Traditions, memories, and annoyances make it into my posts because I write about the life of a writer on top of sharing writing prompts. Speaking of the writing life, fittingContinue reading “Paying It Forward”

Christmas Fantasy Week
The week of Christmas is here and in the blink of an eye it will be gone and the New Year will be here. I started celebrating and getting into the spirit around Halloween and every year I don’t want the festivities and celebrations to end. There’s something about the lights, decorations, and all thingsContinue reading “Christmas Fantasy Week”
Steaming Up the Kitchen
Is it already Thursday? The sad part about the holidays is it flies by and everyone starts talking about their New Year’s Resolutions. People like me. To get in enough of the holiday feel, I think I’ll do a repeat of watching Christmas shows before Halloween. Santa doesn’t need to know that my tree wentContinue reading “Steaming Up the Kitchen”
Another Date of Christmas
Since the recent headlines in the news, I’m not eager to travel to far places this holiday season. I do have some Christmas Markets on my bucket list but I’m okay with waiting, because our city of St. Paul decided to create one at our Union Station. Instead of sitting in a plane for hours,Continue reading “Another Date of Christmas”
Get Counting
This weekend I filled up on Turkey too many times and I think I might go on an exercise binge to balance out the calories before our next holiday. The rest of the long weekend was filled with more family time and one trip to a store for a few Black Friday deals. My timeContinue reading “Get Counting”
Happy Thanksgiving!
Turkey Day is finally here and we escaped the city late last night after I picked my husband up from work. I was surprised to find roads sparse. Rush hour happened without me and I was okay with that. It gets dark up here around 4:00 pm. One rapid test later, and we were onContinue reading “Happy Thanksgiving!”
Minneapolis Holiday Exodus
Offices are beginning to empty throughout downtown Minneapolis and people are bracing themselves for travel days. Is your Turkey thawing in the refrigerator, or the bathtub? We all have our own ways of tackling the big day. Last year, I made my first crock pot Turkey because my family decided to postpone any gatherings. EverythingContinue reading “Minneapolis Holiday Exodus”
The Holiday List
Thanksgiving is next week and I’m thinking I might want to be a the Black Friday crowds next week. Do I really want to join in the frenzy this year only to wait in extremely long lines? I think I might hit a few craft sales and boutique stores for some unique finds this weekend.Continue reading “The Holiday List”
Holiday Cheer
The rounds of editing continue as I work on getting a manuscript back to authors before Thanksgiving. Another plate is spinning because my other author just returned his back cover summary for review. I can keep a few plates spinning at the same time, right? Well, those of you who follow my blog, you knowContinue reading “Holiday Cheer”
Monday Update
My weekend started out with a surprise “yes” to a shopping trip by my husband. He didn’t mind going out to look for some overdue new clothes. He’s the kind of man that I have to remind to buy new socks and underwear, or I have to do it for him because being holy doesn’tContinue reading “Monday Update”
Winter Wonderland
This week has been filled with drizzle the past few days and the Minnesota dread set in at the start of this weekend. I actually saw the s—— word in the forecast. I don’t know about you but I left those spaces blank for a reason and I do call the winter weather word aContinue reading “Winter Wonderland”
Howl At The Moon
Tonight, I think I’m going to stand outside and howl at the moon. Maybe some neighborhood dogs will join me. I’m sorry but an annoyed neighbor would only make me do it again. And they do have furry friends. If they ask, because I don’t have a dog, I can say I was trying toContinue reading “Howl At The Moon”
