Two-Ingredient Super Healthful Tomato Beef Bone Broth

I'm very lucky to have access to meat (and other products) from grass-fed Hawaii cattle. Once in a while soup bones become available at the local grocery store. If you see these, buy them. Six big pieces, if you can get them. Some say bone broth is good for joints, digestion and general health. What …

The Musubi Murder Cover Reveal!

Mahalo to my publisher, Five Star/Cengage, and to Ed and Deirdre at Encircle Graphic for a fabulous cover design! A book cover has to grab your attention, and in a fraction of a second, tell you what kind of reading experience you're in for.

In my quest to bring you the easiest (laziest) recipes possible, I present: Thirty-Second Stock. (Thirty seconds to get started, that is.

For students who had attended …

The first two audiobook chapters just came in!

It's exciting to hear The Musubi Murder brought to life. One of the things I love about Nicole's production is her comedic timing. If all goes as planned, the audiobook will be ready for holiday giving.

The Musubi Murder audiobook now in production!

The audiobook of The Musubi Murder is now in production! My original plan was to draw on our local theatrical talent (much of which is truly world-class!) to record the audiobook. However, I was not able to find a facility locally that would be available for the many hours of recording and production required. So …
