A Birthday Gift from Nature

About three years ago I bought an orchid because it was an unusual one. It wasn’t in bloom when I got it and it took about six months before it bloomed. There were only a few blooms on it and I waited and waited for more. Fast forward two years and I finally am seeing it bloom again right near my birthday! A lovely gift from nature especially since I’m not a patient person and was close to giving up on this orchid ever blooming again. Sharing this photo of the very first bloom. Isn’t it pretty? Also, don’t forget to enter my Birthday Giveaway at https://bit.ly/CaridadBirthdayGiveaway for a chance to win some awesome goodies including a $25 gift card! Hope you have a great Friday! We’re off to the Philly Flower Show today and I hope to share some photos from there soon!

A Very Happy Friday to You!

TGIF it’s Friday! I thought that after I left my full-time job to write Fridays would lose some of their WOO HOO IT’S FRIDAY vibe, but nope, Friday is still special. I still look forward to the weekend, especially since I’m going to spend some time with my daughter on Sunday. That’s always fun. As for Saturday, I’m hoping for a pretty day so I can take a long stroll on the boardwalk. Writing, of course! I’m working on #3 in the South Beach Security K-9 Division spinoff. That series will be out in Summer 2024 but you can read the first three books in the series right now at https://amzn.to/3GYWSAo.

This Funny is Worth a Repeat

I don’t know about you, but there are certain shops that it’s dangerous for me to enter. I could spend hours in a stationery store, especially if they have amazing pens. Garden shops are likewise dangerous, but the absolute worst is bookstores (duh). I could spend hours walking around and checking out what’s on the shelves, journals, and all the other good stuff you can find in a bookstore. Because of that, I thought it would be fun to share this funny again because this is how hubby feels when he comes with me (which he rarely does because he knows how long he will have to wait!)

Friday Night Burger or Pizza?

Friday night was always our casual night. When my daughter was younger it was pizza in front of the television, usually either Doug or Rugrats. Now that we’re empty nesters, it’s still casual night, but it’s not always pizza. Sometimes it’s my other fav food: a burger. How about you? Is Friday your night to relax and maybe order a pizza, burger, or maybe something else? What’s your fav?

Escape the Everglades is Finished!

Woo hoo! I wrote those magic words today: The end. Escape the Everglades, #2 in the South Beach Security K-9 Division spinoff is done. It’ll be off to the editor next week and hopefully, be out in late 2023. This is an action-packed book also filled with emotion as a single dad deals with raising his son after the untimely death of his wife and is also trying to stop illegal poaching. If you haven’t read the first three in the South Beach Security series yet, the first two are now available and #3 — Biscayne Bay Breach — will be available in 18 days.
