Summer...Summer...Summertime!




I haven't posted to this blog in quite awhile, and you want to know why? Well I have been enjoying my summer! Just last night I had a scrumptious dish of raspberry sorbet at a restaurant last night (see photo above inspired by my treat)! In the past two months I have begun a few new projects, saw a kick butt Broadway show - Passing Strange (which was nominated for several Tony Awards!!! Go Stew!), visited Central Park several times to soak in some green and some sun and wrapped up some business from my last book Check the Rhyme. So, things are great and I hope you're enjoying your summer too!
