Congrats Ron!

My very talented writer friend Ron Cree had his book signing at Poor Richard's last night. I snuck into the picture. Great young adult summer read!

Ron read us a chapter that got cut from his book, Desert Blood, and it was very interesting to hear about his start from beginning writer to his successful publication. I look forward to hearing more from Ron.

Dinner with the Sopranos



I'm sad to see the Sopranos go for many reasons... it was a good series, well written, directed and acted and our Sunday Soprano Dinners are over. Not that we can't continue our Sunday tradition of eating Italian but it was fun to think of menus that would work well with our theme. For the finale we decided on:

Herb Crusted Grilled Pork Loin
Creamy Polenta with Sigillo di Garanzia
Sauteed Garden Spinach with Garlic
Quick Marinara Sauce


I'm still not sure what I think about the finale, but the dinner was fantastic.

More Ephemera!!

I was excited this morning to find that one of my favorite sites had redone their website and opened their vintage market.


they also have a poetry portal where I just happened to win 2nd place for my poem, Relics.
