Mysteries to kick off the new year.

-
I generally try to post a list of newly released cozy mysteries every month. Here is just a sampling of newly released books which are available on Amazon. These are in no particular order.

Murder at the Cathedral: An Exham on Sea Cosy Murder by Frances Evesham  This is book four in the series involving a Knitters Guild. I haven't read any of this series but they appear to be set in the UK (check out the spelling differences!) and look like a fun read.

Bonjour, Miss Seeton by Hamilton Crane.  This is book 21 - no joke - in the series. And I don't have a theme going but this series is also set in the UK.

Dune House Cozy Mystery Boxed Set - Books 1-4 by Cindy Bell. This series evolves around the Dune House a B & B which best friends Suzie and Mary are renovating.  Home renovation also seems to be a common theme in both romance and mysteries.

Wedding Souffle and a Dead Valet, a Poppy Peters Mystery by best selling author, A. Gardner. This is book five in the series and is ALSO set in the UK.  I definitely have a theme going!

Mission Impawsible a Paws and Claws Mystery by Krista Davis. An inn renovation where the protagonist and her grandmother are getting ready to host pets as well as their owners.  This one is set in Virginia so I'll have to read it.

Happy Trails,

Leslie

Does the Wine Glass Matter by L. A. Keller

-

As part of my restaurant series, this post is about the vessel you use to consume your juice - the fermented grape juice variety. Personally, I love a beautiful glass from which to drink wine. The more shapely and delicate the more I enjoy the wine - not because it always makes the wine dramatically  better but it adds to the pleasure of the act.  I also tend to break them routinely so I go through lots of different glassware. The first question you may ask is whether to have stemware or stemless (also known as a tumbler).  There was a trend a few years ago to move away from glasses with stems.  I agree that the stemless version is sturdier all around. You are less likely to knock the glass over and unable to snap off the stem when washing. These are easy to load in the dishwasher, but not always advisable for any wine glass depending on the quality of the glass. However, the biggest issue with stemless glasses is that you are holding the glass, and thus the wine, in your hand.

I Don't Believe in Happily Ever After by L. A. Keller

I've been so busy writing Reunion in the Desert and trying to finish the third book in the Jayne Stanford series that I left this short story hanging. I'm including part Nine with the new installment as a brief review.  You can read the entire series in my blog posts or email me for one complete copy.  Part 9 “I gave up on happily ever after. Maybe I'm not cut out for a relationship. Maybe, I just don't like being committed to one person for longer than two weeks.” Clare kicked off her running shoes at the back door of her grandmother, Mae’s house. She winced when she thought about how much she spent on them but the fabric absorbed manure like a sponge and there was no way they would ever come clean. She figured she may as well throw them out, along with all her plans for this weekend. Hours of chores around the farm had worn her down more than all day client meetings. Mae hummed a tune as she prepared their lunch. Clare knew she had been guilt tripped in

Jayne's Restaurant Review - Fabio on Fire by L. A. Keller

I was meeting friends for dinner and wanted to select a place I've never been.  My friend suggested Fabio on Fire in Peoria, Arizona. When I viewed the website, I thought it looked like a casual pizza joint. I was partially right in that it was small and casual but I was wrong about it being just a pizza place. I am officially obsessed!   Located in a small strip shopping area the outside may not impress you but the food definitely will. I dined right before they closed for Labor Day weekend to expand to a larger space in the same location. I can't wait to return to see the changes and to sample more of the amazing food.   There were six adults and a child for dinner. We started with the Caprese and Charcuterie with prosciutto and delicious cheeses. I could have dined exclusively on these starters but we moved on to the lamb chop special, butternut squash ravioli, gnocchi and short rib ravioli.  Each dish was presented well and impeccably prepared. I've hear
