Easy Jackson

December is a busy time of year, but I don't have to shop for a lot of presents anymore so I can indulge in making Chicken & Sausage Gumbo, along with various desserts, and putting together a reenactment for the McDade Historical Society.

We have a great group of locals and professional actors, along with a professional fiddle player for background music, a bullwhip demonstration, and some cute saloon girls. Our history is violent but oh, so interesting.

In the meantime, I'm pounding away at the computer, using one of my old Sunday School teachers as a love interest for Ponder. Dud loves almost every woman who comes along, but Ponder is a little more discriminating.

It keeps me somewhat out of trouble and from falling into the "Christmas Blues."

Happy Thanksgiving from Easy Jackson, aka Vicky J. Rose, aka V.J. Rose
