I am extremely happy to report that last Monday, mystery author Nancy J. Cohen and I helped raise over $5000 to benefit Komen For The Cure Breast Cancer Research. We held the signing at The Melting Pot, which is a fondue restaurant here in my town -- yes, that includes dipping strawberries and other dessert treats into to-die-for thick, creamy, melted chocolate! No wonder the restaurant packed in over 200 hungry customers, all women because this was one of their monthly Ladies Night Out events which always benefits a good cause, like this one or St. Jude's Hospital. So thank you, Missy at the Melting Pot, for inviting Nancy and me to be a part of your very successful night!

And ladies, please don't put off having your yearly mamograms!
