Meatballs, Vampires And A Little Sunday

Good Evening All!

Well...today has proven interesting. For one thing I woke up from having a dream about my Dad baptizing my son in a swimming pool at night, during 60 degree (or slightly warmer) weather. My husband looked at me and said "Oookay." I figured out where the swimming pool figures (saw one on the way home from the Library yesterday and wished with all my might that there was a swimming pool--that didn't cost much and that we could go to--near my house--that wasn't "This neighborhood's pool ONLY"). As to my Dad baptizing my son part...I have no idea. As far as I know my Dad has never baptized (nor been given the authority to do so) ever. Color me confounded.

As to the rest...well this morning I finished reading Kerrelyn Sparks' How To Marry A Millionaire Vampire. I thought it was so much fun (loved Gregori, he was hailirious). So, I looked up the next one on the online catalog for my Library, only to find out there's 19 requests for it! 19! I can't wait that long! I want to read this series, not wait in line for it. But unfortunately, I'm going to have to wait at least 2 weeks anyway. My husband (based on our current finances and infinite wisdom) put a moratorium on any "unnecessary" spending (this doesn't include buying chocolate ice cream at the grocery store--thank you, God! Mustn't ban me from the chocolate). So, even though I have to wait a couple of weeks until September comes around to buy more books, I figure, I've got 2 other books to finish reading from the Library, maybe I can survive. (I just had a lot of fun reading that Kerrelyn Sparks book!)

As to Sunday--Mass with the husband and the boy and home again for a yummy Swiss and Ham sandwich. Then off to Blockbuster to get the boy a movie.

I made meatballs tonight for dinner--first time I ever made meatballs (I don't usually like putting my hands on beef, I usually have my husband work with beef and I work with chicken). They're actually pretty good. My husband said they're good! Yay! Go me! I do like to cook and bake (love to bake) I don't consider myself very good at it, but my husband likes what I make (my son, the picky eater won't touch most things, so we've learned to find things he likes and work on that).

I hope everybody has a nice rest of the weekend! Take care.

Have A Sensational Sunday!

Have you checked into your local Y? It's based on your income and usually they have great pools, indoor and out, so you can swim all year.

Stephanie,

We thought of that, except most of the Y's near us are still quite a ways a way. We meant to check out this one that is a possibility, except we just haven't got around to it. We've had several other things to do lately, so it's slipped by us. I only remembered about it when I saw that swimming pool LOL

Spotlight On Author: Loretta Wheeler

Happy Tuesday Everyone, There's a gem of an author I've had the privilege of coming across...I'm talking about my friend, Loretta Wheeler. She's a sweetheart and very talented author. I enjoyed her YA Paranormal novella, The Pan Man immensely. And, she also writes Romance. So without further ado, come into my parlor and meet Loretta Wheeler: Me:  In your YA novelette, The Pan Man , you mention Pan's looking for his long lost soul mate. What made you choose Pan out of all the Greek/Roman gods and goddesses? Loretta:  I chose the Greek god Pan, because of the connection with the music. I found later on in the story, (my stories take over and write themselves usually) it applied even more than I realized because of the band's name. I won't mention the name of the band in here, because it's part of the surprise ending. Me:  You're mostly known for your Romance stories. How would you describe your writing style? Hot, suspenseful, sensual, sw...

It's Worth A Fortune

Happy Tuesday Everyone, Does anyone remember the song If I Had A Million Dollars by Barenaked Ladies ? I can't remember when or how I was first introduced to this song, but it's a fun song. So, how about if you had a million dollars? What would you do with it? Of course there's the responsible things to do with a million dollars--pay off debts, and such like that. Then there's the question of whether or not you give to charities, and how much. But, suppose you answered all those questions and you still had quite a lot left; what would you do with it? Maybe I'd go to Disney World. I've wanted to go, and I've never been able to. Or, perhaps I'd go to Germany and England, and Belgium (three of the countries my ancestors are from). Travel around seeing family and friends I don't see often. There's all kinds of possibilities. So, what about you? What would you do with a million dollars? Have A Tremendous Tuesday!

Spotlight On Author: Christie Craig

Happy Tuesday Everyone, Sorry about the delay in getting Christie Craig's email interview up. Normally I can just copy and paste interviews from my email into my blog, but this time my blog would NOT let me paste the interview! So everything has to be done manually, which takes longer. Anyway, let me introduce you to Christie Craig: I met her through the NWHRWA , which we're both members of. She's a real sweetheart. Funny, fun, and makes you feel comfortable (you don't feel shy or uncomfortable because she has a very hospitable presence about her). She's also very helpful, offers great advice and encouragement (I know this from experience, she's been very encouraging to me). Christie is a multi-published author of both fiction and nonfiction. Her works include things like Divorced, Desperate & Delicious and her up-coming non-fiction (with elements of fiction) work, Wild, Wicked And Wanton: 101 Ways To Love Like You're In A Romance Novel ...due out this ...
