Did You Know

 Did you know that Mark Twain, a huge cat fan, at one point had nineteen cats?

Did You Know

 Did you know, that in a sealed container, properly stored, honey has no expiration date?

The fact that it has so little water aids its preservative ability.

It's Ketch-up Day

 

How are you?

See the little bed beside Frank? It belongs in a cat house on the porch. And before you start snickering it really is a cat house, you know, like a dog house:) Anyhoo, Frank constantly pulls out the bed and drags it around, even tries to bring it in the house. I can't figure out if he thinks it's his blankie, his girlfriend or prey. 


AND

Time for another calendar pictures installment:


 

That's it for me, folks. I'll be around to see what's going on in your corner of the world.

AND

No sign of grocery prices coming down yet..... AND speaking of which has anyone else given up sodie? I can't justify paying the meteoric rise in price for water, coloring, flavoring and carbonation so I've stopped drinking it. The HH, on the other hand, who is a soda guzzler just dropped down to generic sodie:)

New Release: RETURN TO SILVERHILLS

 


Tagline: A trail boss with a fast gun. A damaged woman. A cattle drive fraught with danger. And a combustible attraction. 

Mini Excerpt:

Boom.

The unexpected sound made her heart crash against her ribs, her hands grow clammy and her breath push in and out in sharp gasps. Her horse sidled in response to her nerves.

Boom.Boom.

More gunfire and whoops sounded in the distance.

She flinched. The bang and flash of gunfire. The sight and scent of sulphur. Always a reminder of the night the Comancheros had captured her and slaughtered her family.

Fighting back the painful memories, Lisa Reiner stared into the valley at the ranch below, the mountains behind it throwing off a blinding glitter wherever the sun touched. Alex talked incessantly about those flashes of silver in the hills. Alex. Who’d cared enough to take her out of the mission and bring her to her own home to start fresh, to live with her like a sister.

Slowly. Tentatively. Fear and nerves crawled into excitement. Silverhills.

 


Bio:

Sandra, who also writes as S. Cox, is a vegetarian, animal lover and avid gardener. She lives with her husband, their dog and cats in sunny North Carolina.

An award-winning author, her stories consist of all things Western and more.


 

Foodie Facts:

She spent a number of years in the Midwest chasing down good Southern BBQ. By the time she moved to North Carolina where Southern BBQ is practically a staple, she’d become a vegetarian.

Pineapple is a must-have on pizza, along with black olives and onions.

She loves pumpkin waffles. Pumpkin cream cheese, not so much.
