I’m ignoring all the shit today and baking cookies. And after I eat lunch I will be frosting sugar cookies.

Read a new short story at a Noir at the Bar in Louisville, Kentucky. Had a blast! 15/10 would recommend.

Making cupcakes for my eldest’s birthday. Fortunate to be close enough to take them to his college. He wanted 24 cupcakes because his floor “isn’t social” and he’s going to change that with the power of cake. That child is 💯 mine.

If Trump has had a major medical episode, like a stroke, then the WH staff has a responsibility to tell the American people. And if he’s incapacitated then he must resign. Congress - where are you?

The weather’s gorgeous today. I’m making pizza and putting together a fire pit. ❤️❤️❤️

Bouchercon is only 2 weeks away and I'm going to be there. Here's where to find me if you want to hang out. I'll also be at the bar and heaven knows where else. (Especially if it involves beignets!)

Got home at midnight, woke up at 6:30. So far I’ve:

- laid in bed for an additional hour
- hit the grocery store
- done 2.5 loads of laundry
- unpacked 2 of 3 suitcases (reason the last suitcase remains unpacked below)
- had coffee and made a quiche
- sorted mail and emails
