Happy Birthday, Mom and Jerry!
There will be celebration. 🙂 Mom is Hazel Bleecker Lael, and Jerry Lael is my favorite (and only) brother. I love you both. On to a new topic: Today, after listening to the Daily Audio Bible (.com) as is my habit, the usual prayer call-ins from...
A clog in the blog
🙂 I hope none of you have been worrying about me, since I've been away from the blog--I am simply putting all my energy into finishing THE MARRIAGE PACT. I LOVE this book. Today was Weight Watchers day, but I skipped the meeting to write. I'm still following the...
Another belated blog….
I spent the entire day writing, except for a long and fascinating conversation with my new editor, Paula Ekelhoff. May I say, she is a remarkable woman? 🙂 She recommended several books, which I am currently downloading: "In the Garden of Beasts" by Erik Larson,...
Belated Blog
First, here are last week's contest winners: Judy Cooper and Midge Watkins. Congratulations, ladies! I'm doing well on my Simply Filling plan, via Weight Watchers--where has this been all my life?? 🙂 I LOVE it! I never, ever feel deprived, and my cravings...
My Favorite Breakfast–and other remarks
I am so loving Weight Watchers' Simply Filling Plan--just this morning, for instance, I enjoyed my very favorite meal--hash browns cooked in a nonstick pan, with the prescribed two tsps of olive oil (or, as Rachel Ray famously calls it, E.V.O.O.) and two eggs poached...
Two blogs in one
I started the first part of this blog last Friday and, due to general principle, I was interrupted. So here's the first one, entitled, "Goals vs Desires" I have another squash waiting, and I'll probably fix it over the weekend, (I did, but I haven't eaten it yet) but...
This weeks winners………..
........are Leanna and Virginia Horton. Each of you should have received an email from Jenni by now. If you respond to it, we'll get your prizes out to you. Have a great weekend!
Spaghetti squash and other tales
You know my penchant for experimenting--and I feel it's only fair to mention the failures as well as the successes. 🙂 The most recent lab project involved spaghetti squash. I decided to deviate from my standard way of cooking this lovely no-point vegetable, which...
What happened to Monday?
I had the best of intentions, but you know what they say about good intentions. 🙂 I was mainly caught up in the current project, THE MARRIAGE PACT, which will be followed by a special Christmas title (brand new) for this year, and we had the usual number of...
It’s been a rocky week for getting online 🙂
I'm grabbing my chance to blog while I can--it's been a wild ride, between switching servers and dicey connections in general. Oh, well, at least I finally showed up. 🙂 This week's winners are Lyla Pedersen and Anita C. Congratulations, ladies. A new round begins...
Hello? Can you hear me now?
For whatever reason, I couldn't get onto this blog yesterday, but I think I remember Jenni passing on the news that the website was being shifted to another server, so maybe that's it. In any case, here I am, ready to rock n' roll! I'm working long hours on THE...
More internet problems!
Errrrgh! I pay these people for internet service, but I don't always get it. I've been waiting to blog, and doing my best to stay on an even keel when I couldn't. 🙂 Our winners for the week are Christy Miller and Terri Shortell. Congratulations, ladies. Your...
