The hubs is on a security gig guarding ghouls at a haunted house, so I’m diving into my Halloween movie lineup. Starting strong with Bram Stoker’s Dracula because it’s one of my favorites - moody, romantic & unintentionally hilarious every time Keanu opens his mouth. 🦇🩸🕶️ #halloweenmovies #halloween

Sundays feel different now without my mom’s calls, a new kind of quiet I’m still learning to live with. Life is nudging me forward though, back into my creative space. A Kaeloque Tale returns Tuesday… buckle up, it’s about to get weird again. ✨💫 #creativewriting #movingforward #life

🚨Rookie mistake alert! Finally found The Impossible Hot Dog at Kenosha Meijer after a year of searching 😃 Grabbed 2 packs, froze one, ate 1 dog for lunch… & had a HORRIBLE reaction 😩. Read the label after eating. Unlike most Impossible products, this one’s NOT gluten-free. Lesson learned (again) 🌭🙃

The weekly A Kaeloque Tale drops are on hold for June. A real-life legend—my 94-year-old mom—is facing a medical emergency & I need to step away as she battles like the warrior queen she is. The gears will grind again in July, Until then, thank you for walking this wild, dusty road with me.

Taking a Tiny Time-Twist! ⏳✨ Due to unforeseen circumstances, this week’s A Kaeloque Tale chapter excerpt is taking a short breather. But have no fear, the story will continue next week!🌌 Thanks for your patience and your love of weird and wondrous tales. #SciFantasySaga #WriterLife #lifehappens

Flight delays and cancellations due to severe weather have unexpectedly extended our vacation, so A Kaeloque Tale will return on Wednesday, April 9th. I appreciate your patience—I know you’re all eager to find out what happens next!

I’m off on an adventure, which means A Kaeloque Tale is hitting the pause button for two weeks! I know, I know— @stephenking.bsky.social will just have to find another story to obsess over until April 2nd. Hopefully, he's not too upset over it. See you soon! ✈️🌍📖 #vacation #cruising #welcomespring

Next up on my 2025 fruit & veggie adventure: red bananas! These beauties are gorgeous, but two weeks in, despite all my best ripening tricks, they’re still firm & bitter. Anyone else had this struggle, or did I just pick the world’s most patient bananas? #FoodAdventure #fruitlove #fruitsandveggies

Next up on our fruit and veggie adventure: the melon pepino! About the size of an apple, with a flavor reminiscent of honeydew. The hubs and I are always on the lookout for something new during our shopping adventures and this was a fun find! #foodadventures #fruitfinds

This morning I finally had my first 2025 Fruit & Veggie Adventure new-to-me ingredient—lion’s mane mushrooms! Caramelized to golden perfection & paired with fluffy scrambled eggs & chives. Downright delicious! ✨🍄 #EatTheRainbow #FoodAdventure #LionsManeMagic #glutenfreevegetarian

🌶️ Made a vegetarian chili with roasted peppers, fresh purple garlic, loads of spices & Impossible meat. Finished with some fragrant Mexican rice, sweet onion for crunch & topped with a lil' cheddar. Comfort food, upgraded! 🥣✨ #VeggieChili #ComfortFood #glutenfreevegetarian #vegetarian #glutenfree

PSA for my fellow gluten-free friends: Always, always read labels carefully! Unlike Red Star's other instant yeasts, this one contains gluten! A good reminder—gluten can sneak into the most unexpected places. Stay vigilant and keep baking safely! #GlutenFreeLife #ReadTheLabel #GlutenFreeBaking

It's been a hot minute since I posted a glutenfree vegetarian meal. Once again crispy tofu makes an appearance, but the real star here is the halloumi & fall vegetable roast finished off with a honey balsamic drizzle, recipe by Smitten Kitchen and WELL worth checking out! #glutenfree #vegetarian
