I think my sweet chickies have been enjoying the sunny warm weather so much that the original three have begun laying eggs again. This is always good news for my family and friends because I finally have enough eggs to share. I am hoping the two new bee colonies that we will be getting in the next few weeks will also provide enough honey this year to share with everyone as well. I love this time of year when things start to come out of hibernation and wake up from winter. I can finally enjoy fresh veggies, eggs and now honey from my own garden.

All The Roads
by J Cotter

FREE for a limited time
All the Roads is a romance unlike any other. “It has been so long since we’ve seen each other… It seems silly that we can’t, you know, chat and catch up.” She tried to play at being casual and nonchalant, looking calmly in his direction.
“No,” Jay replied slowly, “it isn’t silly at all.”
On a rainy spring morning, Jay stops for coffee in a small Alaskan town. The last thing he ever expects is to see her, after almost 18 months of silence between them.
Jay and Elle have a past; running into each other leaves them both uncomfortable. Elle returns to a rented apartment in Maine, where she is set to begin working on a small film. Jay leaves for Anchorage before heading back to California. Their distance is minimized, however, by a constant flow of memories and thoughts, which hauntingly intertwine the two of them. Sometimes moving on really is impossible.
