A Savannah Surprise

In: Family, History, Writing on: April 16, 2026

In 2012, my husband took me on my first trip to Savannah. It was a place he knew I longed to visit, my imagination captured by the city that plays a crucial role in so many of Eugenia Price’s (my favorite author) books. It …

Reviews or Ratings?

In: Reading on: April 8, 2026

In: Faith, Family on: April 2, 2026

February Reads

In: Reading on: February 27, 2026

A slower reading month, mostly because my days have been full, so my reading has been at night. But I can truly say that each of these books I can highly recommend as great reads!  The Correspondent by Virginia …
