Anytime! I spend a lot of time reading books for purely mindless entertainment. My kindle account is so loaded I've started keeping spreadsheets of authors/series to keep track of them all.

I would say yes! Her focus is more on the Whitechapel, poorer areas which make for a nice break from a lot of the other historical romances. Another fun author is Kate Pearce. Definitely more on erotica end of things but her series are good reads.
If you like Courtney Milan, have you read any of the Maiden Lane books by Elizabeth Hoyt?
Very cool about going to Italian school. Was this something you did for high school/college? Cagno, where the family is from, is just south of where German starts appearing on the road signs. I wish we had been able to retain some of the language but spanish class wiped the slate clean. Now when the madre talks to our…
Nice! Go west into Tyrolia and you'll hit our family's hometown. Nonna spoke Nones and so as kids, our understanding of what "Italian" was something guttural and pretty Germanic. Loved her cooking though. Hardly any tomatoes, brown sauce for pasta not marinara, canederli, and lots of apples. And for fucks sake you…
Eh, my nonna was from northern Italy and pronounced Italian foods way differently than central or southern Italians did. To this day I have no idea if it was due to her dialect or just the fact that a lot of the popular Italian dishes here in America were not ones she grew up eating. Pretty much anything with an "e"…
Of course, because it's the whore pills that make us want to have sex. Without them we go back to being docile, knocked-up housewives.
Right? It's bound to happen. Or better yet, make it a Catholic v Protestant difference of opinion. I keep thinking that if the US Conference of Catholic Bishops could be divided from the other part of the religious right conglomerate, then the infighting would hopefully lead to the total self-cannibalization of that…
Thanks for looking that up! Handy information to pass along to others.
Who knew googling vitiligo would lead to so many pictures of penises? Probably shouldn't have done that while at work...
Hawkeye would have been killer. Naming kids after tv or movies can be dicey. A family friend gave their son the middle name of Maverick. Not because of the surf spot but because of Top Gun. And this was recent so there's way they can claim that didn't know how weird Cruise would end up being.
Oh, it's a real thing. Luckily, and I assume because I do not live in the south, I've only been served this once. It's definitely not something I would tell others to try. Ever.
Yeah, I usually can find the good in most things but this just fails on so many levels.
And we're not talking fresh pears. CANNED pears. Cheese and fruit only work when the fruit is fresh. Or it's apple pie.
Mayo, in the right setting, can be good. Frankly, I don't think it's the cheese/mayo combo that is the worst part but the oily, lubricating nature of the mayo combined with the slick gritty softness of canned pears. It's like mixing oil, water, and sand in your mouth. The resulting unmixed combo is really off-putting.
The canning experiment was so disgusting that I only made it through dumping two of the five jars. I still have three jars taunting me.
Well, that's why you add a crapton of sugar!
Nope. Rhubarb pie is FUCKING DELICIOUS.
