I see pictures of friends who live in central Oregon playing in the snow. Mt Hood and Government camp have snow falling and it appears the ski areas may open early. I love the snow but let it […]

Beavers played well and beat Washington–wasn’t expecting that. Ducks played bad the first half and couldn’t make it up the second half. Really sorry to see Oregon lose. I have never liked USC and I don’t […]

Source: Uploaded by user via Chris on Pinterest I have 2 count downs. The first of course is to Thanksgiving. Not counting today there are, drum roll please, 4 days until Thanksgiving. Yummm… turkey and mashed potatoes. I always made a rice stuffing and I was told by wonderful children a couple of years ago that they wanted stove top stuffing. Sigh…I don’t really care […]

 Thanksgiving dinners take eighteen hours to prepare. They are consumed in twelve minutes. Half-times take twelve minutes. This is not coincidence.



I’m working on my rerelease of Highland Magic the second in a three book series. And I am anticipating a great blog tour beginning November 28th at the blog Me Want Food. I love these books. The Scottish Heros are larger than life and so very easy to fall in love with. Colin MacPherson the oldest of the clan and sometimes known as Hawke falls […]

Maybe I could write a highland story with dragons hmm… I love pinterest. The fact that I can type in anything and get pictures is wonderful. I can’t believe how easy it is. Thank you my youngest daughter for introducing this […]

Source: weheartit.com via Eva on Pinterest I just discovered that someone posted a used copy of Highland Honor at B&N for $196.00. Wow!!! And if they happen to sell it, I won’t see a darn penny. However, the thought that someone could even laughingly post a used copy of one of my paper back books is highly flattering, amusing, and CRAZY. Who would pay that […]

Source: ourbestbites.com via Chris on Pinterest I think these cookies look really good. The after the party and I’m absolutely, totally, and yes…extremely exhausted. I have worked on business and thought about writing. I have worked on business some more and thought about posting reviews. Yes, I am still working on business and thinking about writing my last virtual tour blog–maybe tomorrow. Now I am […]

Source: marthastewart.com via Chris on Pinterest November 13th my granddaughters 2nd birthday and giving thanks takes on a whole new meaning for me. I give thanks that all my family are safe today and I am looking forward to celebrating Ana’s birthday later this afternoon. Life is so precious and fragile. It must be guarded, protected and cherished. While I put a smile on my […]

Source: Uploaded by user via Chris on Pinterest Another reason I love the fall is FOOTBALL. I loved high school football and have always loved college football, at least rooting on the Beavs and the Ducks. My family is what–here in Oregon–we call platypus. Don’t know the plural. The dictionary doesn’t like platypii. Half my family are Oregon grads and the other half minus one […]
