So today is my birthday. Because I am a creature of habit, I am off to do what I do every year on my birthday - spend the day shopping. I think I deserve it. I was holed up in my office most of the weekend working on revisions until my brain exploded.
But my teenage daughter cooked a fabulous dinner of enchiladas and seven-layer bars for Mother's Day, a welcome diversion that helped my brain re-form.
Before I leave, here's a little eye candy and a really great way to have birthday cake served to a girlfriend or relative;-)
Speaking of eye candy, check out the cover of my upcoming book, Horsing Around from Ellora's Cave. This has to be my hottest cover yet!

Happy Birthday Wynter! Your cover is fabulous and the shopping plans a perfect way to celebrate. Thank you for the eye candy. You're such a generous birthday girl sharing your joy that way.

Wynter said...

Thanks, Michelle. I've been going shopping on my birthday for about 10 years now. Decadent but fun!

Okay, here's the public happy birthday: Happy Birthday.

Shopping is a perfect way to spend the day. And you're probably not looking at paint, hardwood floors, window treatments, or kitchen cabinets. Afraid that's all we're looking at up here!

Happy Birthday, Wynter! Let us know what treasures you found on your shopping spree, and thank you for starting our day off oh-so-right. I'm not sure whether to take a slice, or go right for the middle...

Wynter said...

Thanks, Terry. You're right - no home improvement stores in the mix.

Dalton - LOL - no slicing;-) So far I've bought shoes, makeup and sweet smelling liquid soap.

Happy birthday, Wynter! Hope you're having a great day. When I was down in TX visiting relatives, they took me to Ross (we don't have those up here north of the 49th parallel). My poor Visa card was smoking and melted around the edges by the end of the day, but if felt sooooo good.

What an awesome cover! Can't wait to read it.

Wynter said...

Thanks, Kaylea. I love Ross. Marshall's too (similar to Ross). DH calls me the shopping ninja for the awesome deals I get.

Happy Birthday, Wynter!! What a fabulous present--going shopping.

Do you have Kohl's stores where you live? Similar to Ross et al and they also have a wide variety of household items. Not that you're looking for a new vacuum cleaner on your birthday--a red-hot teddy is more your style!

Wynter said...

LOL! Thanks,Jina. We have Kohl's too. Seems there are many shopping ninjas in the group!

Happy Birthday, Wynter! Wishing you many great sales, be they at the mall or in the virtual bookstores.

Wynter said...

Ha! Thanks, Cara.
