Last night!!! You guys, this is how you celebrate

Last night!!! You guys, this is how you celebrate a book release, Omaha style. So honored to be part of the reading lineup to celebrate @lizkay09’s release FALLOUT! I have been a fan of Liz’s writing ever since I read MONSTERS: A LOVE STORY and I have been patiently waiting for this book to come out. We got to hear the incredible talents of my Omaha author and poet friends and there was even a bit of a 7 Doctors Project reunion 🩷 Thank you to @dman7th and @gryftkin for the photos (and Dave for the incredible emceeing skils!) and Carl @bookwormomaha for the book sales. Now—go buy this book!

About FALLOUT:
Fallout is a gripping Cold War-era domestic thriller that delves into the hidden tensions, loyalties, and secrets of American military families stationed in 1980s West Germany. The story blends coming-of-age drama with high-stakes suspense and rich historical detail.

For the military families who live in Benjamin Franklin Village, family life isn’t just family life, but a vital front in the Cold War. It’s a patriotic act, a performance of the American Way. They smile outwardly, join social clubs, and hide the unhappiness that goes on behind closed doors. That is, until the Vaughns arrive.

Still reeling from the loss of her mother, sixteen-year-old Samantha Vaughn is a wild child looking for trouble, but when she finds it, her father’s rank means she’s the only kid who won’t pay some kind of price for it. When her social circle shrinks overnight to prissy but pretty Becky Jennings and surly, anti-social David Williams, the frictions between the three of them turn to dangers that none of them recognize. For the women, sturdy, seasoned Army wives Madge Williams and Abby Jennings, Colonel Vaughn’s second wife, Joanne, pulls them out of their ’50s-era military culture and into the modern age. As a newly liberated Madge pushes at the boundaries of an unhappy marriage and Abby struggles to find her place in their changing friendship, Abby’s tight grip on old loyalties keep her from recognizing the threats circling her own family and her friend’s. And when a mysterious package is left on the front step of one of their homes, someone won’t survive the Fallout.

Yes, I took glamour shots of my pumpkin harvest because I am that kind of weird gardening lady.

Here’s the whole harvest! Including the corner of my yard that hosted them. Except for the Koginut squash from @row7seeds, I totally forgot what the other two ones are (tiny ones are maybe Sugar Pie and the Cinderella ones are I have no idea but they’re pretty and likely very tasty since I no longer plant pumpkins that aren’t destined for my tummy)

Curing in the sun!

More curing.

Also curing. This pup is constantly roasting himself in the sun when possible. This has nothing to do with pumpkins, but why do I need an excuse?

What a successful night at the NCS Hope Gala! @ncshopefoundation

It’s always so great to see good friends gathering together for such a great cause. The gala raises funds to help support patients and their families dealing with cancer and helps in very direct ways. Utility bills, Uber rides, exercise classes, and more.

Our Nebraska Author book basket with signed books from Alex Cava, @toscalee @lizkay09 @theodore_wheeler and myself went for a $425 at silent auction! Hooray! And @yungposu’s homemade artisanal sourdough went for $325! Bonus I got to see friend and colleague Dr Melissa Teply and @aliceinomaha @adbomaha @thefarmerbryan too! 😊🩷🫰

It’s m’birthday! 55 and a wee bit tired (we are in Maine visiting our youngest for family weekend) but happy. Very happy. We’ve launched three kids out into the world, B is well and happy, I am busy writing up a storm, the dogs are being dogs in the best way, and I have friends everywhere 😉. Keeping this body and brain healthy at this age is a whole other job but I’m committed. Hey I can do nearly six actual pull ups right now! We are feeling the sandwich generation situation, so there are waves of stress here and there, but I’m deeply thankful for siblings and in laws that are honestly the loveliest people in the world. Thankful they are on my side.

And thankful to all of you. Be well. Happy October! #birthday

I had a fantastic time at the @patapscoliteraryfestival with @shanjensauro hosted by @backwaterbooks this weekend! It was fun heading to Old Ellicott City which I honestly can’t remember at all—even though I was born in Ellicott City, Maryland and lived there until I was eight years old! Thank you all for having me!

So excited to share the cover of our new book THE STORY OF SCENT: The Strange History of Aroma + Your Guide to Personal Fragrance, along with my brilliant co-author @apriltucholke! Thanks to the amazing artist @henrike_lendowski for manifesting the perfect cover for this labor or love and thanks to our wonderful editor Alex Galou @chroniclebooks for helping the whole team get to the finish line.

About the book:
A sensorial journey through the strange history and hidden science of scent, featuring various fragrance families, practical guidance for finding your signature perfume, and aromatic projects for the home and body.

A waft of cedar shavings can transport you to a grade-school classroom, while a powdery floral note might evoke the perfume of someone you love. Scent can summon memories, shape moods, signal attraction or aversion, and reveal surprising stories about the ways people have used and understood aroma across cultures and centuries.

Filled with striking visuals and evocative facts, this gorgeous little volume explores humanity’s enduring relationship with the extraordinary range of scents around us―and shows you how to understand, select, and experiment with fragrance:

Explore perfume fundamentals, from top, heart, and base notes to the dry-down that reveals how a fragrance ultimately wears on the skin.
Discover how aroma can influence mood, why fresh rain on dry earth smells so irresistible, and what makes the scent of sunscreen and tennis balls oddly compelling.
Consult a glossary of terms to demystify fragrance jargon, from “enfleurage” to “sillage.”
Learn the story behind Cleopatra’s famed perfume―and how to re-create it yourself.

With profiles of wide-ranging scent families―from Citrus and Musk to Gourmand―plus recipes for potpourri, body soap, essential-oil blends, and more, The Story of Scent is an engaging and practical guide for fragrance lovers, fans of strange history, and anyone who has ever lingered happily at a perfume counter. #perfume #thestoryofscent #nonfiction #bookrecommendations #bookstagram
