Is another man’s treasure, right?Â That how the saying tells it.Â So I guess it’s no surprise that the recent heat wave that’s had most of us moaning and groaning that even the pool was too hot would be heaven for someone out there.Â Some one prickly, pineapple-shaped…and presumed dead.Â My Cycad, to be exact.

I’ve discovered something better than forks, knives, spoons, chopsticks or even fingers for eating food.Â It’s lettuce!Â It started one day when I wanted the mandarin orange chicken my husband was cooking, but not the rice that went with it.Â I remembered how much I love PF Changs lettuce wraps, and, Ta Da!Â One lettuce

I rewrote my query today, and it only took me ten hours!Â I think that’s a record.Â Which kind I’d probably best not say.Â But, it feels good to be finally really and truly heading out on the query trail.Â Unlike last year when I went out with my dearly beloved 13 Demon Days, I’m

I’ve been thinking how some chicken moms just don’t seem to get it.Â They lay their eggs in the silliest places.Â I mean,Â really!Â What chick would want to hatch here?

This is what comes from rampant flights of imaginative wonder coupled withÂ a tendency to obsess.Â I didn’t mean it to happen.Â I was just day-dreaming a bit and thinking up a spunky little fellow for 13 Demon Days, but apparently my creativity has taken on a life of its own.Â Look what followed us home
