Today is Chocolate Cake Day

Celebrate with a story.

Chocolate Cake for Two

The second novella in the series.

Welcome back to Holiday, USA, small town America, where nothing happens, except holidays... and maybe a little romance, if the hero and heroine trust God.

Freed, after being wrongly imprisoned for a crime he didn't commit, Henry Weaver needs a fresh start. The "Help Wanted" sign in the cupcake shop window couldn't possibly be the answer to his prayer.

Holiday Sweets, a specialty cupcake shop, is Annie Sweet's heritage. Everything would be perfect if only she could find competent help. An ultimatum demands Annie make a painful decision.

Choosing God is rarely the easy way, and sometimes the way to Happily Ever After appears impossible...

Brain Dump

They want to ban gas stoves because it causes asthma in children. At least, that's what they're saying. Which begs the question: When are they going to ban smoking which causes asthma, emphysema, cancer...

Brain Dump

Riddle me this: Every drug advertised on television includes warnings about possible side effects.

Every. Single. One. 

Except one. 

Without any warnings of any kind whatsoever, one is simply pushed: Do you have yours? Have you had yours? Go get yours? 

Hypocrisy.
