Private Chef or Housekeeper? Choose 1!

With the busy lives we lead, who hasn’t wished for someone who could help out with some of the chores around the house? For today’s This or That, who would you choose to help you out? A private chef or a housekeeper? I love to cook and while I do clean the house, I hate doing that! So, I would definitely choose a housekeeper. What about you? Who would you choose? Although I suspect that those of you who have watched the South Beach Love movie would love a hottie chef like William Levy! P.S. – If you haven’t read South Beach Love yet, it’s FREE on Kindle Unlimited and specially priced at 99 cents for a limited time. You can download South Beach Love at https://amzn.to/48xDjKD.

Sun is Out; Temp is down!

We’ve had two weeks of gloom on the Jersey Shore and thankfully, the sun is finally out. Unfortunately, the temperature is way down. That has me thinking of something nice and warm to drink — like a nice hot chocolate with marshmallows — and reading a good book. A beach read to bring back memories of summer! So, what’s your favorite drink on a cold winter day? As for a beach read, if you love second chance at love stories, try out Under the Boardwalk. It’s about a couple about to get divorced who think they might be making a big mistake. Will they give it another try? Will they get their happily ever after? Did I mention it’s a st**my read? You can download Under the Boardwalk at https://amzn.to/485Y134.

Big Shoutout for 5th Kingdom Review

My daughter and I are headed out early to visit a nearby IKEA and get some things for her house and the nursery! So excited. In the meantime, I want to say a big THANK YOU to Jeanne Jones for her review of The Fifth Kingdom! I love this story about a woman forced to confront her relationship with her mother and an ancient relic that could destroy humanity if it lands in the hands of terrorists. Did I mention the hot former military man working for the CIA who will help save the world but lose his heart. The Fifth Kingdom is on sale for 99 cents and FREE if you’ve got Kindle Unlimited.

Please help me choose! Just leave the number of the design you’d like to see down in the comments section! As for me, I’m partial to either 3, 7, or 4, which has a Banksy kind of vibe to it.

Amazing Cable Car Ride

One of our adventures in Seoul, Korea was a trip up to the Namsan Tower. The nearly 800-foot tower is a communication and observation tower on the top of Nam Mountain. Now you may remember that I fear heights, so getting into the cable car for the three-minute ride up to the top was…well…difficult and interesting. Somehow I managed to video it for you! Of course, the audio has been edited out to protect your delicate ears from an assortment of laughs, swear words, and prayers?! It’s also been speeded up in the interest of time since it is a longer ride. As for the views from the top, well they were definitely worth it as you can see if you watch to the end of the video. The views of the tower above us as well as the entire city once we walked up at least four or five flights of stairs to reach the tippy-tippy-top were absolutely stunning. There was also a long chain link fence where you could leave locks with a message. Of course, we had to buy some locks and leave them with our own message! If you ever get to Seoul, be sure to take the ride up to the tower! P.S. – This reminds me of a trip I didn’t take to the top of the Space Needle in Seattle. I was at a legal conference and online for the trip when we were called away to meet some colleagues. But I did get the Space Needle into the story for Trapping a Terrorist.
