While waiting for my editor, Jo, to finish with book 7, I have started some of the holiday cooking. Candied pecans, fudge, cookies and cake. I am hoping to make a few involved dishes and get the cooking bug under control. Fortunately we have enough people to eat the food I always yearn to make…

If I could write this next year into existence, I would eradicate certain diseases, I would change certain political practices, but most of all I would bring magic in the form of health and a wealth of love and acceptance to every heart.

It was great and we had a wonderful time going over the stories about the different orniments while my mother played the keyboard, filling the house with music. After collecting orniments not only my whole life, but from…
