I don't usually post about matters political, but this is too important to ignore. I am involved with two charity fundraisers to help the people of the Ukraine, and I'd like to tell you about them. One is an anthology put together by Romance Cafe Publishing. Over 60 authors have written everything from flash fiction … Continue reading Two Fundraisers in support of the Ukraine

I needed to know where these little morsels of sugary delight came from. And so, down the rabbit hole went I, and this … Continue reading Butter Tarts: A Sweet Bite of Canadian History
