For my teaser this week, I am using an excerpt from The Kitchen House by Kathleen Grissom.  When I finished A Piggly Wiggly Wedding last week I knew I wanted to read something less "light"  so I chose this book from my ever growing Nook library.  I have to say that so far, this book as been a page turner.

"There are times after she's taken exercise in the yard -- the mad yard, they call it -- when she appears to have some recognition.  But then she pleads for the baby, or for our sister Isabelle.  I feel I must be honest, yet she grieves so when I tell her they are both dead." This is taken from page 173.


Really good book.

I haven't done a Teaser Tuesday in a while and, of course, I am a day late but no matter, here goes.

"That evening, Mr. Choppy and Gaylie Girl were snuggling on one of his well-worn sofas surrounded by several of her still unpacked boxes.  They were also in the midst of sipping cocktails and discussing Euterpe and her perfectly balanced poodle."

"A rooster was chasing the mayor in front of Town Hall, a hog rodeo was in progress on the town green and, above everything, a small man in a model dirigible floated over the square, dropping firecrackers."

Bad News

 Hi all.  Well, there is no way around this — I have bad news.  I had my gall bladder out and, long story short, I have gall bladder cancer....
