We are gearing up for our biggest storm yet on Wed/Thur, on top of the 20+ " already on the ground. We are lucky if we see grass by June! Have a great week.

Whenever I read mysteries, they are pretty much always cozies, and most of those are culinary related, so I'm anxious to check out the series for your first book.

enjoy them both!
