Frozen Matador by L. A. Keller

-


Here's a cocktail which will get the bull raging and keep you cool at the same time. This is made with a few simple ingredients and you can change it around by using limeade or another flavor of frozen sherbet.

1 1/2 ounces Tequila
1 ounce Pineapple Juice - fresh, canned or frozen concentrate
1 ounce Orange Juice - fresh or frozen concentrate
1 tablespoon Lime Juice - fresh or bottled

If you replace the fresh juice with frozen concentrate use less ice.

Combine ingredients in a blender with ice.
Blend thoroughly.
Pour into a Collins or parfait glass.
Garnish with pineapple or orange slice.

Happy Trails,

Leslie

Book Review - The Cavanaugh House by Elizabeth Meyette

This is the first book of two in the series. This is basically a light mystery with a paranormal element and a bit of romance. Set in 1968, Jesse Graham has ended her engagement because her fiancé, a somewhat famous musician, has been cheating on her. Luckily she has inherited her aunt's house where she can live while she decides on her future. In the process of renovations, she meets her hunky neighbor, sees her aunt's ghost and figures out an old murder. I admit to forgetting most of what I learned about Catholicism as a child, however there were parts of this book which didn't ring true for me in Jesse's relationship with her friend. Maggie, the nun. I questioned the language Jesse uses with her friend. Even though they grew up together I would expect her to have more respect for her friend's religion. Jesse routinely curses and they drink beer as if it were water. There is also a section where Jesse convinces Maggie to remove something which doesn't belo...

Writing Support

I just joined yet another writing group, well actually make that a new group and two sub-groups.  You may wonder why, when I already barely have time to catch my breath, that I decided to commit myself to something else.  The answer is simple - I get so much more than the time I invest. Every time I attend a meeting or read the publications from these associations I find my almost dead batteries are re-charged.  My inspiration (some like to call it their muse) returns.  My motivation to sit back down at the keyboard and bang away is back and I remember why I'm doing this at all.  I love books and even more than reading books I love to write. As hard as the task seems to be at the end of a long day, or an even longer week, putting my thoughts on paper is exhilarating.  The possibility of seeing my work in print or even in an e-book format is thrilling.  So despite feeling that I have absolutely nothing to contribute, nothing to say (which is shockin...

Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine by Gail Honeyman by L. A. Keller

I haven't loved a book this much in longer than I can remember. I read every genre, except horror and nothing has kept me a prisoner of the page like Gail Honeyman's beautiful story of a woman lost in a world of regret, shame and abuse. This description sounds like the book is depressing but it's the opposite. The evolution of the character is heartwarming and you'll only be sad when the book is done. I don't want to give away the story so this review will be intentionally vague.  When you first meet Eleanor your impression is one of a completely different person than the one who emerges as the story unfolds. Eleanor works in an office, the same job she's held for a long time but despite that she has no friends. Her co-workers snicker about her, she believes her boss hired her because he felt sorry for her and she has scars - some visible and others not.  She lives by a strict set of self-imposed rules and to vary them causes her great stress. But one ...
