Food tastes better when you eat it with your family. I enjoy having my children with their feet under my table to share a meal. I like sitting down with friends to share a meal. While the food is good, the conversation is better. For several years, we’ve gone on what we call a sibling retreat with my husband’s family …
Working on the narration of my third Rosey Corner novel, Love Comes Home, has me thinking about Rosey Corner again. I did so enjoy getting to know those Merritt sisters plus one and sharing their lives through ten or so years with you readers. I dedicated those stories to my mother and her three sisters. Their stories about growing up in a …
A few years ago a local reporter for my hometown newspaper that comes out once a week just the way I had the newspapers coming out in my Hollyhill and Hidden Springs stories. I do seem to like having a newspaper in some of my stories. Anyway, when I was rummaging around for something to post tonight, I came across …
“Life’s beautiful when you learn to see the good in everything instead of seeing the flaws.” ~Jr. Ronaldo Thank you all for playing my mystery photo game in July. I hope you had as much fun as I did.

And what fun imaginations you have. I love the way you give these mystery photos your …
“No object is mysterious. The mystery is your eye.” ~Elizabeth Bowen I promised the answer to Sunday’s mystery photo Wednesday, but then the grandkids came to go blackberry picking. The same as many grandmothers, everything else gets shelved when the grandkids come around. I thought I’d find the time to post it before last night, but I don’t know what …
Without mysteries, life would be very dull indeed. What would be left to strive for if everything were known? ~Charles de Lint Thank you all for making my Mystery Photo Game so much fun. You notice I’m saying that because you all weren’t right. LOL. But some of you were on this last picture. I guess I’m a pretty easy …
“Mystery creates wonder and wonder is the basis of man’s desire to understand.” – Neil Armstrong. I had fun reading all your guesses for Sunday’s mystery photo. Seems food ruled the day and actually food was a sort of right guess. But the photo wasn’t pancakes or waffles with blueberries and strawberries, but after reading your guesses, I was ready …
“The world is full of obvious things which nobody by any chance ever observes.” ― Arthur Conan Doyle I’m throwing down a challenge again to all of you who like to play my mystery photo game.
