Not So Super Heroes and Last Chance at the Giveaways.

This is the last day of the Small Blogs, Big Giveaways for October. To enter, go here. Lots of prizes and gift certificates are being given away. And if you don't make this month's contest, you can try in November.

It's also the last day for the Pink Fuzzies giveaways. I posted a brief blog today about my kind of heroes, as well as an excerpt from Tastes of Love and Evil. To read or just comment to enter for a prize, go here.

Happy Hallowe'en!

Sweet Potato Dressing and More Giveaway Stuff

 Small Blogs Big Giveaways is still ongoing, and so is the Pink Fuzzies week-long giveaway.

Today on the Fuzzies, I posted a recipe for sweet potato dressing (a Thanksgiving sort of thing) and a pic of one of the river canyons north of Vancouver, because giving thanks and Vancouver go together in my mind. Here's the pic because it's worth posting twice:

For the recipe, go here, and comment if you'd like a chance to win one of the three books Mary Ricksen and I have to offer. For a chance at the SBBG loot, go here.

Pics for Irish Tea Brack and 3-Legged Cat

A terrible photo of tea brack by a terrible photographer (me). It's much darker and more beautiful. The recipe will be up tomorrow on the Harlequin Historical Authors blog.

This is the Three-Legged Cat that belongs to our friends in Ireland, about to walk away...

And at rest.
