Until Next Time...

  Ya'll know my love of historical romances.  I started out reading them when I was young.  My mom had all the Victoria Holt books and I loved them.  That is why I also have an affinity for Gothic romances LOL   Anyway, in my never ending quest to read anything I can get my hands on, if it's a romance book, all the better, I picked up The Lady Gets Lucky by Joanna Shupe.   If you haven't read her yet, I suggest you get one of her books and get started.  This is the second book in her Fifth Avenue Rebels series.  Joanna mainly writes historicals that are set in the Gilded Age in New York City.  What a fantastic time!  Money, power and excess galore!  Our heroines get a little more freedom than Regency but there are still societal expectations.  And Joanna's heroines are doing their best to move women forward.  Some are more straightforward than others LOL In here we have Alice Lusk.  Typical shy heiress who has a horrible mother and wants a house and a husband of her own

We'll see where that ends up :)  Have you been doing any reading?  Eating anything good? I'm engrossed in The Wisteria Society of Lady Scoundrels by India Holton.  VERY ENTERTAINING!  I'm chuckling often with this one.  As for food, I have been doing Hello Fresh for almost 2 months.  I am loving it!  It eliminates my need to plan HAHAHA  Seriously, the ingredients all come to you with the recipe card for the meal.  All you need to do is pick the
