You hear about so many food bloggers who become popular and end up with cookbooks, doing tours, etc. Not that I'm on par with any of them, but I think about it sometimes and shudder. Even just today, I was at the grocery store, and as I was leaving, I passed the vending machines full of lottery scratch tickets and where you can get quick picks for the big lotteries. I know that Powerball is up to $500M this week, so I wanted to play, but that nagging thought took hold ... if I win, I'll end up on the news and they'll make me stand for pictures, etc.!! Ugh!!!

So different to my writing space. I'm looking up the hill, covered with lush green bush, some banana trees, some palm trees and several big granite boulders. Everything is ... green and brown (the coconuts). I wish you good luck with the publishing.Karin @Mommy's Paradisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13412730277381159551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1241894027649595262.post-25025808956363304892012-01-25T19:48:19.861-07:002012-01-25T19:48:19.861-07:00What a lovely writing spot.
