To the Fresh Fiction virtual Holiday Potluck, I would bring a fruit basket that
contains apples, strawberries, peaches, pears, plums and bananas. I am currently
writing the Superstition Mysteries, which premiered in October with LOST UNDER A
LADDER. Researching superstitions has become great fun, and to some extent I
incorporate them into my own life. Am I superstitious? Maybe more than Read More...
Pirates love to drink liquor. Especially one wily pirate—Henri—in my
Romancing the Pirate series. He has a fancy for bows in his beard and
an insatiable appetite for rum. And he gets downright grumpy without his nip.
But in the spirit of the season, he'd like to share a cocktail favorite aptly
named The Henry.
Ingredients:
1 oz. Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum (a pirate's Read More...
The best holiday gift of all doesn’t come with a bow. It’s the gift of love. And
these beautiful little sugar-dusted gingerbread cookies, baked with love, are
the perfect Christmas treat for holiday dessert trays—or to leave for Santa with
a thermos of hot coffee on a chilly winter night. (You know he’s going to need
that caffeine for his magical ride!)
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all of Read More...
I never liked mushrooms as a kid. I still don’t like them raw. But I LOVE them
cooked and this is one of my favorite recipes. They’re great as an appetizer or
for one of those “everyone bring something finger food-ish” events and when I
first served them to friends of ours I think John would have eaten the whole
platter if we hadn’t slapped his hand and fought for our Read More...
This recipe for Swedish Glüg has been in my family for generations. One of my
characters in my short story, Christmas on Cape Cod -- which can be found in the
Christmas anthology, Making Spirits Bright, also makes it. Glüg will warm your
heart...and soul to the core! Just make sure you have a designated driver!
Cheers!!!
Combine
4/5 quart Swedish Aquavit or whiskey
1 gallon port wine

I tapped the mic. “This thing on?”
Hannah nudged me, shaking her head. “Cade, they can hear you.” Two girls in the
back raised their pale yellow drinks. One shouted. “Loud and clear!”
“Good. You all have a glass of our favorite Christmastime drink. Holiday
Hawaiian Iced Teas.” Hannah handed me the shaker. “I’ll demonstrate while Hannah
lists out the ingredients.”
She nodded. “Your gift stockings have the recipe plus a special drink garnish Read More...
In DEADLY
HOLIDAY Tory and Jordan enjoyed a mug of this with family and friends on
Christmas day in front of a fire after they enjoyed exchanging presents. This
was the first of many to come for this couple after a harrowing week before the
holidays. Nothing beats chocolate, someone you love, and family and friends.

Down here in the Southern Hemisphere, we celebrate the holiday season a little
differently. We enjoy sunshine rather than snow, and Santa is more likely to be
wearing board shorts than fur-lined trousers!
Instead of mulled wine or eggnog, here's my favorite drink for the silly season.
I like to call it a Festive Mojito because I garnish it with a strawberry to
give it that gorgeous splash of red amongst the green Read More...

I grew up on the border of Texas and Mexico, where Christmas isn't Christmas
without homemade tamales. Tamales originated in Mexico, and they're tubes of
meat and Read More...
