Tea

By Julia Schmeelk | October 31, 2017

There are so many ways to make tea, some better than others, but most work with the correct type of tea. In a pinch I have used a microwave to heat the water, usually two minutes. That is good with fresh lemon, lime, or ginger in the cup of water. My preference is the copper…

Mind Speakers

By Julia Schmeelk | October 31, 2017

A reader asked me how Hanna could receive the announcements made by the territory dragon (Grabon) and not be able to receive communication sent by telepath? Great question that I left unanswered until a later book. However there is a simple explanation that may help you understand without destroying future revelations. Territory dragons when they…

By Julia Schmeelk | October 29, 2017

We experienced our first frost of the season last night. As things happen, we managed to get the air conditioners out of the windows last evening. It was interesting watching the birds peck at the frozen bird bath this morning, but the sun seems to have melted most of it already. This is such an…

By Julia Schmeelk | October 27, 2017

My books are filled with food ideas, but here is one that would never make it to NewEarth.

Bake at 400 until golden brown.
