I admit it, I'm overwhelmed. My book proposal is due in under a month and I'm working overtime to wrap it up right. Doesn't help that it's the busiest season of the year at the wine shop where I work. I can't keep up, dear readers. I apologize for my absence. I'm sending you my holiday cheese love as I write this today and I promise to be back as soon as I can. It won't be long. Think good writing thoughts for me. Sending me chocolate works too. In the meantime....

There's a big party going on at Cheese and Champagne.

THE CHEESEBALL INVITATIONAL.....

We're all invited. It promises to be one of the best bashes of the season.
