You may have noticed my Book Blog is early. By the time you read this I will probably be in Barcelona, Spain or … Continue reading October Book Blog
Now that the trick or treaters are home nursing belly aches after a night of eating the candy their parents approved, and the parents are battling sugar highs from the candy they confiscated from their kids treat bags, what ‘s the next holiday?
