I finished writing Sushi and Suspicions and turned it in! To celebrate, I ate my favorite peach jelly from Minamoto Kichoan ! I was a bit surprised to realize at the end of the book that there wasn’t as much romance as in some of my other books, maybe because there were a lot of characters in this book compared to other romantic suspense novels I’ve written. Sushi and Suspicions will be releasing in June in the multi-author box set Summer Suspicions . Even though it’s a box set, each Christian Romantic Suspense novel in it is a full book, so it’s a great deal! Preorder Summer Suspicions for only 99 cents!
Captain's Log, Stardate 10.12.2007
Yup, I’m already thinking about Christmas because this year, I’m making a bunch of them.
Some socks for Grandma and aunties and uncles, because their feet get cold and you rarely find wool socks in Hawaii. (Plus most houses don’t have central heat in Hawaii, for obvious reasons, but it can get a bit chilly at night in the wintertime.)
A cute felted purse for my cousin’s daughter, who loves purses (it must be genetic, because my mom loves purses, I love purses, and now my mom’s sister’s son’s daughter loves purses).
Some scarves and lace shawls for special people in my life.
And the best part—I just ordered yarn last night! My stash grows and grows.
One of the reasons I start so early is because I CAN NEVER FIND ANYTHING! My parents are especially the hardest to find presents for.
You know who’s the easiest? Captain Caffeine, because I tell him to just get for himself whatever he wants for Christmas.
How about you? Any thoughts on Xmas presents for loved ones?

I was thinking about a nice set of sheets for my mom. And my sister will be home for Christmas, so I thought about doing a photography session to get a family picture done (cause we're never all together).
Otherise, I'm stamping card sets for people and trying to finish a couple of scrapbooks as presents.

I'm planning to make books for many in my family-- I've got such wonderful photos and this is hardly more expensive than buying prints.
Since I'm not a knitter and my family is spread over eight states, I need gifts that are easy to mail. My favorite is from OneVerse. You can have a Scripture passage of your choice translated into the language of your choice through Wycliffe. They send a gift card and everything. It's very cool!
