Waiting for the snow...

There is a chicken roasting in the oven and I just finished cooking Cathy, The Showfood Chef's, amazing Kaboucha Soup with Cilantro Chili Drizzle! I know it's amazing cause I've already had a little bowl, OK a BIG bowl!  It hasn't snowed in the SF Bay Area since 1976... when I was in kindergarten.  I remember it with every ounce of my soul!  It's a magical night here.  There is such a strong feeling of inspiration and possibility!  As the temp drops our bellies will be warm, full, and ready to make this winter's magic a reality.  Let it snow!

Sunset: home



Last night from my back yard. 
Sometimes it comes in your favorite colors.

BOOK love!


"Sweet Charlotte's Seventh Mistake" got some love, love, love!

*Ben Tanzer, author of such notable books such as, "Most Likely You Go Your Way and I'll Go Mine ", and "99 Problems", gave SC7M love galore! "Sweet Charlotte's Seventh Mistake" made his 2010 Top Ten List!  See: This Blog Will Change Your Life.  Thanks Ben!

*Antonia Monacelli, a brilliant Hub Pages writer, gave "Sweet Charlotte's Seventh Mistake" an honorable mention in her article, "Addiction, Insanity & Polygamy: The 10 Best Memoirs".   Her glowing review put my book in the company of Alice Sebold's "Lucky", and Elizabeth Wurtzel's, "Prozac Nation". Thanks Antonia! What an honor!

I fooled with color on this classic Mediterranean tile design, going for the old school effect with green and golds.  Stainless steel posts. Khaki green Swarovski crystals.
