Friends Forever





This is what THE BROKEN CIRCLE is all about:

Friends Forever

Friends forever 
Friends for life
Friends to skip rope with 
Friends to hangout
and watch the boys go by with
Friends to believe in
Friends to find hope with 
Friends to grow up
                          and become
                          adults with
Friends to grow old with
and friends to die with.
                                             
                                        THE BROKEN CIRCLE
I remember so much of friends and family, loves and loves lost that I wanted to write a book about them. I combined several friends’ attributes into a couple of characters. Since I grew up in south Minneapolis and still have a brother nearby, I love to visit the area. It’s a beautiful city with so many wonderful parks.

When Jacob Wetterling was abducted in October of 1989, it took away the innocence of all of us living in this state because it happened in central Minnesota, the farmland. The area full of people who make a living from the earth. I never got over it because it seemed so wrong.

I wanted to make it right so I wrote a story about it. In my book, THE BROKEN CIRCLE, I made the abduction part of my book only a completely different character with opposite circumstances.

I hope that you will preorder it and will also leave me a review.

White House Traditions

Image
Nineteenth century White House Christmas celebrations were not grand state affairs. Instead, most first families of this era decorated the building with simple wreaths, garlands, and ornaments, and quietly celebrated the holiday. But there were some exceptions. The first White House Christmas party was held in December 1800. President John Adams and First Lady Abigail Adams gave it for their four-year-old granddaughter Susanna Boylston Adams, who was living with them. They invited government officials and their children to the party. According to family tradition, President Andrew Jackson's 1835 "frolic" for the children of his household was one of the most elaborate parties ever held at the White House. It included games, dancing and a grand dinner, and ended with an indoor "snowball fight" using specially made cotton balls.                                    President Benjamin Harrison placed the first Christmas tree in the White House

PRESIDENTIAL HANDSHAKES ON NEW YEAR’S DAY

  Shaking the president's hand. Have you? Ever? Tell me about it! Calvin Coolidge's New Year's lineup.     PRESIDENTIAL HANDSHAKES ON NEW YEAR’S DAY     For more than a century, New Year’s Day was marked by a large reception held at the White House. Foreign ambassadors and members of the US government were invited, but attendance wasn’t restricted to a guest list. Astoundingly, anyone could wait on line, enter the White House, and shake the hand of the president.  The tradition of the New Year’s reception, or levee, as it was often called, began with George Washington, before the White House was built. The first occupant of the White House, John Adams, took up residence in the unfinished mansion in November 1800, and hosted its first New Year’s reception on January 1, 1801.  A history of the White House published a century ago noted that John and Abigail Adams hosted a “very formal affair”:  The President and his wife did the honors alone that New Year's Day, and it doe

Time to bake!

My husband is from a small farm, and he’s never gotten over the urge to raise fresh vegetables. I used to enjoy canning and making jelly but since I became an author there’s very little free time so it’s up to him. I resurrected my mother’s old recipe for zucchini bread and recently made a couple of loafs. Boy did they taste and smell good too!              Now is the time to become absorbed in a new book!                                                                                                                    Suffragette to Death       Here is the link to the first in my White House Dollhouse series:           Fourteen Points to Death   Barb's Books   Twitter   Goodreads   Amazon Page   BookBub    Please share with your friends and relation and on Facebook.
