Keep the heart in Heart Lake. That’s exactly
what three small-town shop owners hope to do when they
launch their crazy-ambitious "Have a Heart"
campaign—asking neighbors to commit one random act of
kindness every day. Emma, Sarah, and Jamie love their
lakeside community, but the little town is growing too big
too fast, and a doing a good deed never hurt anyone. Or
so they thought... When Emma slashes prices at her
quilt shop, practically giving away blankets to anyone who
looks vaguely cold, she almost stitches her way into
bankruptcy. Sarah’s free cooking class boils down to a
hotbed of crime when some punk kid swipes her favorite
heirloom. And at Jamie’s chocolate shop, things take a
bittersweet turn when a local policeman starts giving her
grief, stirring up feelings she’s tried to forget—and
slowly melts away her defenses... With irresistible
humor, warmth, affection—and recipes!—author Sheila
Roberts serves up a generous, open-hearted story about the
friendships we make, the chances we take, and the lives we
touch every day.

Sheila I REALLY enjoyed your blog this am. I'm still sitting here chuckling over your efforts to create Ganache in the kitchen I swear you were peeking when I make the effort except I'm not creative enough to salvage it, I would have run it out to the garbage.

Sheila, I can't wait to read your book !!
Very funny blog... I can completely relate...*sigh*. You can't get only triumphs in the kitchen, right ?

Your book sounds delicious as well as the recipe for fudge. I do not care to bake any longer, I've given that honor to my daughter. I do however love to create other things by throwing different ingredients together.

Sounds like fun. I never throw anything out. Even if it doesn't look right, it can still taste good. You are going to eat it, not look at it.
Look forward to reading your book. It sounds like an enjoyable read.

Your book sounds so good! And I loved reading about your baking experience. I had to laugh! I'm glad someone (besides me) has kitchen problems.

I really hate cooking now, but baking I enjoy, though I try not to indulge since I would eat my efforts completely. Fun blog!

Love your blog, and love your books (especially Love in Bloom).
When I was a newly wed umpteen years ago my best friend was a wonderful RN, but a scatterbrain everywhere else. She made an apple pie for our bridge group, dropped in when it came out of the oven, then got everything back into the pan and called it apple cobbler. Recycle is the word, right?
