TJ Wilde Trilogy · Duxbridge Mysteries · Jennifer McCaffrey Mysteries
A friend sent this to me, knowing I love Korean food. It’s a very easy recipe, though you’ll need some specific ingredients. I could get both gochujang and gochugaru locally, but it also available on Amazon.
This made about 5 servings and was super yummy. I did use my food cubes to freeze the meal ingredients separately.
My birthday was Wednesday, so part 3 of the Underway series will post next week.
TJ Wilde Trilogy available here.
I’m going to let you try and figure out what’s going through Reggie’s mind here.
Clearly something is not right with his dog and he needs me to know it.
So much disbelief that I am not as concerned as he is.
I have been food cube curious for a while, but wasn’t sure I’d have much use for them. That was until a fitness/food vlogger talked about “meal Tetris.” This is the idea of storing just one food item in each tray and then creating meals by mixing and matching the ingredients.
A few days a go, I was watering the new plantings and saw the most unusual bee over in the echinacea garden. From afar I thought it was a big bumble bee. Instead, it was actually this bee:
That’s a Red-Belted Bumble Bee. I had never seen anything like it before and did some research: Bombus Rufocinctus/Red-Belted Bumble Bee.
I didn’t have my phone handy, so was disappointed I wouldn’t get a photo. But wait!
Location, location, location. As important in fiction as it is in real estate.
So I had SoWa. I had Long Island just off Boston Harbor. I had a unique Cuban gallery that participated in a Cuban artist exchange program. All that was left was a quick trip to Cuba. Once I had the locations, the artists’ community, and the historical context I needed to craft TJ’s Boston world, then the mysteries began to unfold.
Before she even unpacks, TJ finds new friends in SoWa, thanks to an abandoned kitten, and is quickly thrust into another mystery, thanks to a break-in and a missing gallerist. A Cuban art gallery, with a Cuban exchange program, and an abandoned hospital on a mostly abandoned island, offer a tangled web of intrigue. And she still needs to navigate her new job, along with suddenly becoming responsible for a rambunctious kitten, all while actively avoiding Colby’s many texts.
