  1. Just bought the Cabot Cove book. Love the price illustrations. Best of luck with sales for both.

  2. Oh no! I would like to help out with the recipes but I’m still not done editing this stupid novella! I need to edit faster…. 😀

    1. Stick with that edit VT! Testing will be ongoing for some time so perhaps you can reward yourself with something weird to cook once you have it in the bag!!

  3. I’ll have a go at a couple of the recipes if they are still up for grabs. I’ll take Lee Merriwether’s Peanut Butter Cookies and Ron Masak’s Mushroom Dip. I’m a mushroom lover, but I’ve never had a mushroom dip, so I’d love to give a try!

    1. Yay! Great stuff Chris, thanks a million for volunteering. I’ll get the recipes over to you very soon. I am so pleased that someone volunteered for the mushroom dip. I have a mushroom phobia so a mushroom dip is my idea of hell!!
