I know many may feel it best to leave bedroom doors open at night, especially children's, but it's not. We have firewalls on our computers...think of that bedroom door as a firewall. Also, always have working smoke detectors and a designated family meeting place in case of a fire. Do you have those?

Oh, so true!
A moment of silence please for the hard work and dedication of all those who work tirelessly to keep writers fully stocked with existential pain

This Thanksgiving, try my favorite chocolate pie. I've used this recipe for decades, and it's still my favorite. Be warned: You'll be sneaking back into the kitchen for another slice! Find the recipe on my website at carolyntillery.com #carolyntillerydallas #riptidedallas #inmydallaskitchen

As soon as the temperatures start to drop, I'm in the kitchen making hearty dishes. Although Carne Guisada is a year-round staple in Texas, it's particularly delicious this time of year! #carolyntillerydallas #riptidedallas #inmydallaskitchen Find my recipe at carolyntillery.com

I'm an enormous fan of Elizabeth, Ron, Abrahim, and Joyce and their crime-solving adventures solved using their collective lifetimes of experience. Watch out, world; when "senior citizen" time hits, I'm going to be just like this gang! #carolyntillerydallas #riptidedallas #murderbooks

One thing I've loved about my long career in journalism is getting to know interesting folks from all over, like Gary Mulligan, a retired nuclear chemist turned entrepreneur. If you are in New Jersey, stop in his Dickey's Barbecue for some great food and big laughs.

I love Murder by the Book in Houston! They sent me Elizabeth George's new Lynley novel as it arrived in the store. Unfortunately, having pneumonia has really knocked the wind out of my sails. Alas, Lynley and Havers will have to wait. #carolyntillerydallas #riptidedallas #murderbooks

This is what it's really all about folks.
Taking Kimmel off the air has nothing to do with HIM and everything to do with YOU. He’s losing his show, but you’re losing your rights.

Another big man. Throwing a woman to the ground.
Are we great yet?
A woman protesting outside the ICE facility in Broadview, Illinois, was brutally assaulted by goons who used mace and sting balls on her.
