But who knows what sort of winter we will have here in NJ.

Thanks for the introduction.<br />Cooks are always in a rush or ticked off mood when in action.<br />Stay out of the kitchen, is a good warning.<br />Better finish getting the yard ready for the snow plows.<br />It's going to be a pretty day. yvonneLa Petite Galleryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09553902574516930172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3185294584889963228.post-9387437591467676672015-10-26T23:32:09.453-04:002015-10-26T23:32:09.453-04:00This may be too light and humorous for me, but I l...This may be too light and humorous for me, but I like the time period.

Send me an address and, if you like, I'll send you on this copy of MESSAGE OF THE MUTE DOG for you to read and maybe pass on to someone else.

Ooooh, can't wait for Tuesday. I've never had a post dedicated to me. <br /><br />P.S. I don't know about 'torrent' but I hope to write an extra few. It all depends on whether I have enough good days. :)Yvettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08919246184376538331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3185294584889963228.post-57820634104027141092015-10-23T13:05:52.817-04:002015-10-23T13:05:52.817-04:00Yvette,

Those characters sound more like they belong in an English village with Miss Marple. <br /><br />Well, I've been reading some heavy stuff lately, so maybe something on the lighter side would be welcome. I'll check around and see what I can find.Fredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10233846613173866140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3185294584889963228.post-56496336480241297292015-10-23T11:40:06.490-04:002015-10-23T11:40:06.490-04:00And single names are even easier to remember, espe...And single names are even easier to remember, especially when they post such enjoyable reviews as this.

Book sounds great thought Yvette - thanks for that. And look forward to the torrent of reviews coming our way chum :) And by the way, the review I'm posting next Tuesday I am dedicating to you (you'll see why). Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
