Indigo Dying


 by Susan Wittig Albert


Well, here we are at Book 11 in the China Bayles mystery series.  Our heroine and her best friend, Ruby, are out of town for what should be a fun filled weekend.  Rugged leading man, McQuaid, comes, too, and brings his son along so they can enjoy a little camping and fishing at a nearby beautiful pond.  China is collaborating with a friend from college at an herbal workshop.  The small town of Indigo is also hosting an outdoor arts and crafts fair.  China and Ruby will be sharing a booth selling items from their Pecan Springs shops.  The charming community has an entertaining evening planned, too!  They are presenting a locally written and produced play, "Indigo Blues". 

When the town bully dies of an apparent gunshot wound right after the play's final curtain, the entire crowd breathes a sigh of relief and some even rejoice.  Our Mystery Machine team will need to interview every single citizen of Indigo to get to the bottom of this murder.  Once again, I

Could.  Not.  Put.  It.  Down.

Have you ever been enjoying a nice, quiet day of crafting, then BAM your jar of ModPodge falls off the table, splatters across the floor, and onto one of your favorite toss blankets?  Well, that happened to me right in the middle of this project.  Talk about a big, sticky mess!  Not to worry, though.  We have hardwood floors.  First, a dish towel was used to mop up most of the glops.  I had the thought to use rug cleaner on the afghan and also sprayed foam across the glue swirls on my floor.  The toss blanket made a round in my washing machine and came out unscathed.  A quick wet mop restored my hardwood floors.  Now, back to my nice quiet day of crafting.

Friendsmas celebrations are such a wonderful way to spend an evening with girlfriends!  The plan for this year's party, besides snacks, is for each person to bring a $10 gift and we will swap.  It's nice to have a small something for everyone, though, so this is what I'm adding to the mix. Fizzy Soaking Salts!

Participating in craft challenges is just that.  A challenge!  I love how each one helps me think in different ways and pulls me out of any ruts I might be experiencing.  This one is all about sustainability.  For me that means:  Minimize purchases.  Upcycle wherever possible.  This time, I even grew something from seed!
