It’s officially not summer
for a few weeks, but yesterday ushered in the start of the summer season. That
means we’ll be eating a lot of ice cream during the hot months ahead.
In Finding Mr. Right, the short story sequel Lois Winston wrote to Hooking Mr. Right, she includes a recipe
for edible body paint. We’re not necessarily advocating our readers go all
Fifty Shades. After all, this is a G/PG-rated blog! However, for the less
adventuresome, Trulee Delectable Chocolate Body Paint is equally tasty on ice
cream, fruit, and cake.
Trulee Delectable Chocolate Body Paint
4 oz. butter
5 oz. unsweetened chocolate
12 oz. evaporated milk
1 lb. confectioner’s sugar
1/2 teaspoon almond or
peppermint extract
Melt butter and chocolate on
top of a double boiler. Remove from heat. Beat in evaporated milk, then
confectioner’s sugar. Return to double boiler and continue to heat for 10 to 15
minutes, stirring occasionally, until mixture thickens. Stir in extract once
mixture has thickened. Serve warm or cold. Refrigerate or freeze leftovers.
Finding Mr. Right
In this short story sequel
to the award-winning Hooking Mr. Right
by Lois Winston (writing as Emma Carlyle,) editor Grace Wainwright, has taken
over the role of bestselling author and romance guru Dr. Trulee Lovejoy. Thea
Chandler, the original Trulee, is now married to her Mr. Right and is a
successful cookbook author. She and Grace host the top-rated Love Recipes cooking show. When producer
Becket Delaney announces the first two shows in February will have a
Valentine’s Day theme, Grace freaks out. The worst day of her life occurred on
Valentine’s Day ten years ago, and she wants no reminders of it. Beck has his
own reasons for hating the holiday, but the show must go on, and he absolutely
refuses to deal with an uncooperative prima donna. When a citywide blackout
traps him and Grace in his thirty-fourth floor office, their adversarial
relationship really begins to heat up. Recipe included.
Finding Mr. Right is available as a .99 cent ebook or as a bonus short story in the
paperback edition of Hooking Mr. Right.
