When life (or the grocery delivery) puts three dozen eggs in one bag and it breaks, don’t cry. Make quiche!!! This is my first-ever quiche! Isn’t it pretty?

Baby Kitty, immortalized in two of my books, one as a cameo as the sassy J’Austen and another with her real name “Baby Kitty, has gone to see her brothers and sisters. We were with her until her last breath. At one point, she even reached out and touched my hand. She had a good long life, lived in five states, had lots of brothers and sisters she terrorized and then outlived. She had a great family of two boys and a mom and dad who took care of her, brushed her, held her while on computer, played snake shot gun with her… All after she was found on a street, then kept, not taken to the pound. She lived past seventeen. She will always be with us in memory, and I’m sure we’ll find her hair on everything we own forever. We love you, Baby Kitty. ❤️ https://www.instagram.com/p/Ckdz4IXLMCH/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I never tell people I meet in person what I do for a living… But hubby and I met a new couple, and she’s a firefighter! And she has an interesting past, and all I want to do is shout: “You’re my Silvia!” But instead, I just listen intently and ask questions! Oh… I’m not writing about her past, of course. I already have my story, but that doesn’t mean I don’t eat up all her anecdotes about working with fellow firefighters!!! #MidnightSons #AlaskaSeries #BookSeries #RomanticSuspense #Firefighters #SearchAndRescue #MustRead #ActionAdventureRomance #BingeRead https://www.instagram.com/p/CVdwQdUBzS3/?utm_medium=tumblr

⛄️ Hiking the Grand Canyon never gets old, but seeing it blanketed in snow was an amazing experience.⛄️ And for my friends who worry about me...hubby does too! One of my Christmas gifts was a set of “Crampons” for my boots. I will never hike in ice without these again. Amazing! I felt invincible! ⛄️ #WhiteChristmas #Arizona #ArizonaSnow #GrandCanyon #BrightAngelTrail https://www.instagram.com/p/B6lFCEagIT-/?igshid=z184w6nglq24
