Fall Pumpkin Recipes

Now that Halloween has passed, it's almost holiday baking season. Some may be sick to death

of pumpkin in everything but I like it best in baked goods, the way it was intended...in my humble opinion. Here are some recipes to try on chilly fall days.

Walks or bike rides can help too.
For my romantic mysteries, Sarah Starting Over and Greyson Starting Over, I wanted to write about parenting and grief and my friend urged me to write about a disabled character. Because of my childhood love of Murder She Wrote, I also wanted to try my hand and writing a mys…

Bachelor in Paradise

I admit to watching a few episodes of Bachelor in Paradise. It's purely for research purposes. Lol. I just don't understand Amanda's bad taste in men who moan loudly on camera when they kiss. And also, now I want to read Andi's book about their break-up. What is your reality show guilty pleasure?
