Finishing Up Plain Proposal
Good Morning Friends!
This past weekend, I tested one of the recipes to be included in the first Land of Canaan Novel--Seek Me With All Your Heart--Chicken Lasagna. Really good! My fabulous assistant, Janet, tested chocolate shoofly pie and cabbage casserole. Janet wears many hats, and I'm so glad she likes to test recipes on Hubby Ed! All three recipes are winners and will be included in the back of Seek Me With All Your Heart.
This morning, I was sitting outside and typing the final copy of the recipes to send to my editor, so I had the cookbook outside with me. I am quite sure that when I went in the house, I wasn't gone for more than two minutes. Just enough time for Chloe, my Lab, to shred the cookbook! So, I have been piecing it back together at my kitchen table. I love my Chloe, but I am not very happy with her at the moment. Chloe had a special part in Plain Pursuit (book #2 in the DOP series), but I've told her that if she eats any more Amish cookbooks, no more starring roles for her. I think she understands.
In other news, I'm finishing up book #5 in the Daughters of the Promise series--Plain Proposal. Here's the cover and a brief synopsis.
RELEASING IN MARCH 2011.

Miriam Raber enjoys life in her Old Order Amish community, and she is hopeful that Saul Fisher will propose to her soon. But when Saul begins to talk about leaving the only world either of them has ever known, Miriam struggles to ignore the advances of Jesse Dienner, a man committed to marry and live his life in the Old Order community.
Complicating matters is the arrival of Miriam’s cousin, Madison, a worldly Englisch girl sent to live with Miriam’s family following trouble back home.
Who will Miriam choose a life with, and who will choose to stay in the Old Order Amish community? Who will leave?

I cannot wait to read your newest book, it sounds interesting and wonderful. I LOVE reading about the Amish people, their lives & their traditions. I just cannot read enough about these wonderful people.
I am planning a trip to Ohio in Sept. and want to visit the Amish there. Do you have any recommendations for me?

I agree with Robin. Love the cover, esp. the colors in it and I too love the recipes. I have tried some of them and they are so good.

Love your cover! I'll wait to read the book. Either choice would make a great ending. You have just given us enough to have us sitting on the edge of our sets. It will be a hard book to put down. Keep writing.
