Great for warming up during the holidays!
Check out A COWBOY'S DREAM - coming on December 17th through The Wild Rose Press. Leah hosts an annual Christmas Eve party....and though I think I have her serving cider in the story, Hot Butter Rum would be a good substitute for that recipe. Will pro baseball player Marcus go for the grand slam of his life and crash Leah's annual Christmas Eve party in hopes of convincing her she’s this Cowboy’s Dream? Or will he let his past pitch him a strike out instead?

Hot Buttered Rum sounds way too good to me. I love Cider too and Egg Nog as my weight will tell you.
The new book sounds great can't wait to read it.
Love you,

My favorite is Holiday Punch with pineapple juice, cranberry juice and strawberry or raspberry serbet. It's enough for me but my husband likes to add some vodka...
Your Hot Buttered Rum sounds great, will have to try!
Happy Holidays!

I love hot buttered rum! I once got the recipe from a friend who has passed on, and I couldn't remember the ingredients anymore. The recipes I found weren't right, but this one looks to be it!

Your Hot Buttered Rum sounds like a great drink.The new book sounds wonderful!!!Can't wait to read it!!!
I so like Egg Nog at Christmas and I so like cowboys in stories. Yummy to both!!!
Candy Cane Cocktail...that sounds great. I'll have to try it. I'm not much of a drinker, but I really like Galliano....which when mixed with coke taste like black licorice. Yummy.
I forgot to say when I'll hold the drawing for the calendar.....I'll draw for a winner on the 17th, when the book comes out.
