Happy Thanksgiving!
No big blog entry from me today; it's Thanksgiving Day here in the U.S. Derek & I will be going for a humongous lunch at his parents' house with the Shearin clan, followed by desserts, napping, chatting, and then luscious leftovers for dinner. (I made my famous Deviled Eggs -- I use horseradish sauce instead of mayonaise, hot/spicy mustard, and instead of a "dash of pepper" I use black pepper, red pepper, and white pepper. Those little bites of deliciousness have kick! If anyone's interested in the recipe, let me know and I'll post it.
I will be working today. I have a TON of notepad pages that I've been scribbling on this week to make sure I get the next chunk of Bewitched & Betrayed right the first time. If something happened to those pages before I got them typed into a file, I'd be so screwed. So that's what I'm going to do today after lunch -- taking my laptop to Derek's parents' house and doing a little data entry. I figure I'm coordinated enough to type and engage in socially acceptable conversation at the same time. ; )
Tomorrow I'll post another snippet from The Trouble with Demons featuring Raine, Phaelan, Vegard -- and introducing Phaelan's dad (and Raine's uncle) Commodore Ryn Benares.
Happy Thanksgiving! And don't forget to take that little baggie of nibblets & bits out of the turkey before you cook it. ; )

Happy Thanksgiving!
Be careful of the Food Coma.
Food coma?
No thanksgiving here in England, but hope you all have a fantastic day. :) Due to lack of sleep I too am not writing today. Doing lots of gaming (great thinking time for my wips)
Happy Thanksgiving, Lisa! Although we don't celebrate it here in Oz. Lol.
How you been? Sorry I haven't posted for a while, I was taking part in NaNoWriMo and reading up a storm. :)
Hope you have a great weekend!
PS. Looks like I'll have to send you an email to get a bookmark and postcard. They look gorgeous! ;)
Thank you, Ace! In my family, we call it the "turkey drug." Yep, I almost fell asleep after dinner.
Yunaleska, to explain "food coma" and "turkey drug" -- turkey has tryptophan, an amino acid that produces seratonin, that functions much like a natural tranquilizer, which can relax you and make you want to take a nap. Though from what I hear, the sleepiness after eating a big Thanksgiving dinner is as much from eating way too much than eating just turkey.
Hi Yolanda! Unless you've moved since the last time I sent something to you, I still have your address -- I'll send you a bookmark and postcard. ; )
Oh, SO cool! I'm still at the same address. Thank you, thank you. You're awesome!
You're most welcome, Yolanda. ; ) And thank you.
