Re: How To Lose A Lord in Ten Days or Less (11:14pm July 16, 2014):
Escaping into a good book is the best hobby I can think of, ladies.
Beth, I've been thankful for a book to keep me company in many waiting rooms.
Debbie, can I come over to your house for some veggies? I think you can really taste the difference between store bought and garden veggies. My garden is all flowers this year, but I'm hoping to add a vegetable garden next spring. Everything takes time when living in a new house. ;)
Carol, I'm glad you're still able to lose yourself in a good book. My mom was disabled but lost her eyesight as well--it was devastating. But, it made me thankful for every day of life and every line of a book. Enjoy! :)
Denise, I'm curious about your paper crafting. I keep saying I'm going to take up scrapbooking, but then I never do...
Thanks for your comments! :)

Y'all have some neat hobbies!
Peggy, I've always wanted to learn to crochet. I tried knitting a few years ago, but after 8" of a lumpy scarf I gave up. LOL I need to come take your class!
Vicki, they grow up way too fast! *sobs* I look at my little boy every day and wonder when he got so big.
Janie, I'm impressed with that too. LOL I don't think I would be very talented at the bagpipes. Genealogy is a cool hobby! I know a good bit about my ancestry, but I would love to know more.
Sue, that sounds like fun! Can I come along and drive the golf cart? ;)
Glenda, the hardest part of gardening is keeping everything alive, isn't it? It's a daily challenge at my house. ;)
Thank you for chatting with me, and I hope you enjoy HOW TO LOSE A LORD IN 10 DAYS OR LESS! :)

Bonnie, brownies are always a good choice! I hope you enjoy the book!
Nancy, the comments on this blog post are making me hungry too! I'm going to have to go in search of something sweet after chatting about chocolate so much! LOL I hope you enjoy my book!
Tonya, it's the best theme for a book ever, right? ;) You can't go wrong with chocolate! I hope you enjoy reading Desperately Seeking Suzanna!
Re: Desperately Seeking Suzanna (8:12am March 14, 2014):
Glenda, I love strawberries and chocolate. Yum! I'll eat oranges and chocolate, because it's chocolate...*shrugs* But, it isn't my favorite either.
Cecilia, mmmmmm, blondies are so good! My mom used to make them. Unfortunately I tried the same recipe about a year ago and they where like little rocks. I'm still not sure what I did wrong. LOL I'm sure your baking expertise is better than mine though. :)
Denise, thanks so much! I'm glad you like the excerpt and I hope you like the rest of the story as well. :)
Kai, there's always room for Jell-O...and bacon, but not together. ;) Sometimes the simple things in life are the best.
Vanessa, thanks! I hope you enjoy Desperately Seeking Suzanna!
Jean, I love the inside of pecan pie. If I could sit down with just a big bowl of pie innards, I totally would. But, I would deny that I did it when in public, so don't repeat that. ;)
Re: Desperately Seeking Suzanna (11:10pm March 13, 2014):
Kathleen, that sounds delicious! And the fact that you got the recipe from one of my favorite authors is so cool!
Richard, I agree! Chocolate is always the right decision! :)
Cathy, thanks! I hope you enjoy it!
Mick, I hope you like Desperately Seeking Suzanna! :)
Re: Desperately Seeking Suzanna (9:41pm March 13, 2014):
Robyn, I approve of your top 3 dessert choices. Yum! Have you ever noticed that they sell Girl Scout cookies right when everyone's New Years diet resolution is starting to fail? I think it's a cookie conspiracy. ;)
Janie, banana pudding is my husband's favorite dessert. It's dessert comfort food. Love it!
Rhonda, I love anything with peanut butter. Nom nom nom. :) I hope you enjoy Desperately Seeking Suzanna!
Re: Desperately Seeking Suzanna (8:24pm March 13, 2014):
Jane, I looooove chocolate martinis! They're dangerous but delicious! I hope you enjoy Desperately Seeking Suzanna! :)
Re: Desperately Seeking Suzanna (8:20pm March 13, 2014):
Marcia, I sympathize with your chocoholic tendencies. I, too have a weakness for all things chocolate. That cake sounds wonderful!
Re: Desperately Seeking Suzanna (8:17pm March 13, 2014):
Jan, that dessert sounds sinful and so so so good! And peach cobbler is my favorite too. Yum!
Re: Desperately Seeking Suzanna (8:16pm March 13, 2014):
Linda, I agree. Being on a diet makes you want that cheesecake with strawberries on top that much more! Thanks for the compliment on the book cover! I love it too! Purple is my favorite color. :)
Re: Desperately Seeking Suzanna (5:57pm March 13, 2014):
Vennie, I would love to have a true Cinderella moment! It seems like my Cinderella moments involve cleaning the house more than balls with Prince Charming! LOL
Re: Desperately Seeking Suzanna (5:44pm March 13, 2014):
Thanks, Cecilia! I hope you enjoy it!
Re: Desperately Seeking Suzanna (5:43pm March 13, 2014):
Laurie, that apple pie sounds delicious! I hope you enjoy Desperately Seeking Suzanna!
Re: Desperately Seeking Suzanna (4:31pm March 13, 2014):
Laura, you remind me of my sister-in-law who has been known to have a container of chocolate icing and a bottle of red wine for dinner. :) There is nothing wrong with the simple goodness of some icing and a spoon. Yum!
Re: Desperately Seeking Suzanna (4:03pm March 13, 2014):
Sandra, I slimmed down enough to fit into the dress and then promptly put every ounce back on. LOL But, for that one evening, it was fabulous! :)
Re: Desperately Seeking Suzanna (2:32pm March 13, 2014):
Wow, GS Moch! That sounds like a marvelous eating experience! Southern Living recipes are always delicious. I love their magazine! I tried one of their recipes once for a chocolate cake with chocolate icing and praline icing over the top of that...it was messy, but seriously yummy!
Re: Desperately Seeking Suzanna (1:06pm March 13, 2014):
Yes to all of the above, Colleen! I agree! :)
Re: Desperately Seeking Suzanna (11:21am March 13, 2014):
Karin, I could go for a brownie right now. Yum!
Re: Desperately Seeking Suzanna (11:20am March 13, 2014):
Haha! It's easy to get wrapped up in thoughts of chocolate, Peggy! :) The banana split sounds delicious! Thanks for the book compliment as well as the one about my picture--it's a close, head shot picture. It's deceiving. LOL
Re: Must Love Dukes (10:41pm February 27, 2014):
Lois, why does it seem like first impressions such as this one will never go away as long as you're neighbors? Something similar happened to me recently when I was doing yard work and my new neighbor walked by with her wine glass in hand...who goes for a walk with a glass of wine? Anyway, I don't think it's possible for me to be cute enough to make up for meeting little miss wine walker that way. LOL
Diane,I hope you're in a happy place where you want to be now. :) This same thing usually happens to me when I have to go with my husband to his work events. Miserable--but smiling! As my great aunt always said, "Put on your tea grin!"
Re: Must Love Dukes (8:29pm February 27, 2014):
Linda, that's awful!!! I would die! And no matter what you say, you can't play it off like you kept their gift. This is exactly when you would want to disappear under the table. I'm glad you survived the evening!
L Lam, I do that too when I'm upset. Ouch! ;)
Marcelyn, that is soooo awkward! I'm glad you got through it and got out of that restraunt! Thanks for commenting! :)
Re: Must Love Dukes (1:01pm February 27, 2014):
Jane, that sounds like the beginning of a contemporary romance novel! Awkward, but it all worked out in the end. Love it!
Colleen, how terrible! I hate it when I can't remember someone. Everyone should be required to wear Hello my name is stickers all the time! LOL
Re: Must Love Dukes (11:48am February 27, 2014):
Gail, I've stripped wallpaper and I think that is the messiest work EVER! I can only imagine the look on your face when your brother's friend found you in that state. LOL
Re: Must Love Dukes (11:40am February 27, 2014):
Lisa, I'm just glad you weren't hurt! That could have been even worse if you'd hit your head or something. Passing out stinks, but having a good sense of humor about it is awesome!
Denise, I seem to invite these moments into my life. There have been too many for me to count too. Thanks for commenting! :)
Re: Must Love Dukes (10:49am February 27, 2014):
Linda, you have my sympathies. That's awful. On the bright side, at least they were all men. LOL
Karin, I understand. The worst job I ever had was selling hair to bald men--not my proudest moment. ;)
Peggy, I'm glad you get to hide in the country. I try to do that as well. So sorry to hear of your health issues though. Thanks for adding my book to you TBR list! I appreciate it! :)
Re: Must Love Dukes (9:26am February 27, 2014):
Bonnie, I wish you luck with avoiding the spotlight. I know how hard it can be to be the center of unwanted attention. Best wishes. :)
Pam, did you give him the, "Hey, you"? LOL I think the worst part of this is getting called out on it. "You don't remember me, do you?" Um no I don't. Awkward! Thanks for commenting! :)
Re: Must Love Dukes (8:15am February 27, 2014):
Cynthia, that same thing happened to me a few months ago. We were renovating our house so I was a mess and I ran into my husband's old boss at the hardware store. He asked about my family and referenced my mother who passed away 2 years ago. *sighs* I'm glad you survived your awkward conversation. :)
Re: Must Love Dukes (8:10am February 27, 2014):
Sheila, I sympathize with your hair issues. I once dyed mine pink by accident. It was awful.
Sharon, isn't that the worst? I had the same problem with my next door neighbor before we moved--one of the reasons we moved. :)
Laurie, oh, girl. I am a blusher too. It's awful. The worst part is my ears turn bright red when I'm nervous. Public speaking isn't so cute when you have red ears. :)
