I hope as the days countdown to the big holiday you’re all doing well! Things here took an interesting turn Tuesday night. My inlaws arrived Tues afternoon and I’d been feel very sleepy that evening, so I took a little nap. That night as I lay down on a sofa in the rec room, my …
My friend, Karina Fabian, has a great idea for gift ideas for writers. Check out her blog here. Is your shopping done? I think ours is pretty much done. We’re going to Ohio after Christmas to spend New Years’ with my family, so I think we’re going to hit the after Christmas sales for a …
Life is so busy this time of year. Even when we try to simplify and pare down what we give, how we decorate, all that, it still seems that the Christmas and Advent season surprise us and we’re not ready. At least that’s how I feel. I know that I should think about doing some …

Today it is my extreme pleasure to introduce you to Heather Garside. Heather grew up on a cattle property in Central Queensland. As a child she loved horses, books and the bush and these are still passions of hers. She and her husband now have a cattle and grain farm. She has two young adult …
Well, the holiday season has started. Tomorrow is the last day of school for the kids until the Monday after Thanksgiving. Again, as we did last year, we’ll have guests and have a big Thanksgiving blow-out. In 2004 and 2005, we ate the November holiday meal in restaurants. In 2004, my brother and sister-in-law, Baby …
