Isn’t it adorable? Our daughter-in-law made it for our
granddaughter’s birthday party yesterday.
If you like peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, you’d love this cake! It
tasted just like one, except a bit sweeter maybe. There was also a large chocolate
cake, complete with candles, so party goers had their choice. (I had one of
each—small ones—I had to try this one!)
Our granddaughter loved the baby dolls we bought her, and
the stroller. She plunked one of the babies in it and made Papa take several
walks up and down the block, her pushing the stroller, him following.
Next weekend is our neighbor’s birthday. It’s a huge pot
luck party that includes several rounds of skeet shooting and we all look
forward to it all summer. Oh, and
speaking of neighbors, my other neighbor brought over some of her amazing dill
pickles. They are so delicious!
On the writing side—Here’s the cover art for Unclaimed Bride. Lovely.
Monday brought me some fabulous news. Harlequin offered me
two contracts of three books each. One is for three Undones to be released in
2013 and one for three full length Harlequin Historicals. The first of those
will be released in July, which means I need to have it turned in to my editor
by mid-September. A challenge for sure,
but my wonderful editor brainstormed with me until we came up with a wonderful synopsis
and then I hit the keyboard. I already love this story. It’s set in 1884. He’s
a Pinkerton agent looking for train robbers. She owns a mercantile in the Dakota
Territory, and is unwed and pregnant—which no one knows about. Yet.
If you have a chance, stop over at www.cowboykisses.blogspot.com this
week, I’m interviewing two more authors from the Honky Tonk Hearts series.
Smile, and spend some time simply enjoying the wonderful
summer we’ve been blessed with this year.
