My youngest basset said he hated January because it was so boring. I could use boring right now. I feel like I just completed a three month marathon. Yesterday was a beautifully boring day, and I was able to actually do a little cooking. The rain was coming down pretty hard and I got a hankering for some comfort food. I did a little experimenting with the Instant Pot yesterday. That cute little machine might just be the thing that turns me into a good person who cooks for her family. I posted some of the recipes for you guys to check out. Click here to see what I was up to.

“Wow! Amazing read. What an imagination. The first page grabs you and doesn’t let go. Newton Barlow is an unforgettable character. Highly recommended.”

English TV scientist Newton Barlow has everything he could ask for – a glittering career in the lab and on television, a beautiful wife, and best of all, the opportunity to promote his rock-solid certainty that supernatural and religious beliefs are nothing but complete and utter hokum. But the ever-snarky Dr Barlow is about to take a tumble. Mired in scientific scandal, Barlow is cast out from the scientific establishment and ejected from the family home. Then, after three lost years, Barlow is approached by his old mentor and fellow skeptic Dr Sixsmith with an extraordinary proposition, an offer that Newton simply cannot refuse. There’s just one small problem:

Sixsmith is dead.

Thrown headlong into a world that frankly shouldn’t exist, Dr Newton Barlow is about to come up against the best and the worst of human nature: tooled-up vicars, paper-pushing ancient Greeks, sinister property developers, a saucy rubber nun and possibly the most mean-spirited man ever to have walked the earth (twice).

From the dusty plains of Spain to the leafy vicarages of Hampshire, Dr Barlow will have to contradict everything he ever believed in if he wants to save this world – and the next.
A rollicking supernatural adventure, packed to the ceiling with British humour, an unforgettable cast of purgatorial misfits and bumbling villains. The Unhappy Medium is a wild ride.

He’s met his match. She just doesn’t know it yet.

After suffering a very public humiliation, Kenadie Marshall realizes that love shouldn’t be left only to personal judgement.

Attractive and loveable Jason Hadley is taken with Kenadie from their first meeting. Determined to prove that love isn’t over for her, he does everything he can think of, even if it means using her firm’s service and dating other women to stay close to her.

Jason quickly gains a rally of supporters, including Kenadie’s over-enthusiastic mother and meddling best friend, but will his ploys help Kenadie find her match, or jeopardize everything she’s created and lead to further humiliations? In an epic battle of wills, this romantic comedy shows that love is patient, love is kind, and love can heal even the most broken of hearts.
