vamysteryfanI spent Saturday with my sister and her son, celebrating her birthday. Took them out to lunch, and then we played miniature golf. I was hoping she'd choose Revenge of the Sith, but she took off work the day before to go and see it.
Sunday was laundry/cleaning/yard day. I spent two hours raking and weeding, filled a whole bin with leaves and branches. You couldn't tell I'd done a thing. I did find some lovely wild raspberries and a few things I thought were weeds turned out to be lovely flowering vines.
My newest mystery addition is Jane Haddam's True Believers. I really like that author. This particular book was a bit squicky because it dealt with the priest/pedophilia issues that the Church is having. She handled it well within the context of a very clever mystery. I like her characters - very memorable. One of her main characters is a fantasy writer. She wrote another series under the name of Orania Papazoglou where the heroine was a romance writer. If you can find those, read! They are hilarious. The titles are things like Sweet, Savage Murder - sendups of romance titles.
