@Jessicawhippl17 Love chai! Yes, please!

Happy Sunday. We have chai tea concentrate on the stove and I'd love to share it. Lmk if you want the recipe!

@Jessicawhippl17 I do too! I'm in!

I don't know if this is silly or not but I love the sentiment of Christmas cards and I would love to exchange with people here. Could be digital...

@Jessicawhippl17 Oh no!

@Jessicawhippl17 We also enjoyed an e-bike tour around the Park. Luckily, no one else signed up so we got a private tour for a group tour price. Lulu Lobster Boat tour was a nice way to get on the water. Bar Island is nice to explore, you can walk there at low tide!

@Jessicawhippl17 We didn't hike much, but enjoyed hiking Great Head Trail. A little bit of scrambling, novice-friendly. Driving up Cadillac for sunrise was special, then breakfast at Cafe This Way.

What are your favorite things to do in and around Acadia National Park? Prettiest hikes, little-known spots? Anything you love? #acadia #Maine

@Jessicawhippl17 We had a Buca di Beppo in Central FL and it was a pretty interesting place. Funny thing is, it took over a location that was previously occupied by The Bubble Room, which had a similar theme (odd decor and huge portions). Thanks for sharing!

I have some new followers and since it's #poetryfriday here's my most recently-published poem. Ghazal for a Bankrupt Restaurant Chain online.ucpress.edu/gastronomica/a…

Congratulations, Christine!

@JEngelMattern It's heavenly! Swiss cheese and caramelized onions on rye. So good.

New agent alert for my #kidlit followers. MG and YA, go get it.

@JEngelMattern Funny you ask! We just finished our meatloaf leftovers on Monday. Hubby and I are divided on this one. He is team Cold Meatloaf, I am team Meatloaf Melt. I'll eat it cold, but it's not my fave.

This month ENOUGH IS... will have been out for 2 years! To celebrate I'm offering a SALE on Brain-Picking Sessions--30 min for $20 or 60 min for $40. Details at my website, authorjessicawhipple.com

Communication is HARD! Groundhog is ready to hibernate. Beaver thinks Groundhog wants help cooking. Every SMACK WHACK WHACK on the door brings new ingredients Groundhog never asked for and one less day of sleep. Back matter on groundhogs and Groundhog Day. #TLPPitch #PB #HOL #HUM

@HernandezSteena Oh no! Not Veggie Bots!

@mowrex Sounds lovely!

I WISH YOU MORE X THE END Life is full of beginnings & endings that are so WOW!-- First day of school and summer Start whistle and finish line Invitation and party day But what about the time IN BETWEEN? Come along. Take a look. #TLPPitch #PB #SEL
