N.M. Kelby Rocks!

This morning, around 10:30, I was hanging out in Outer Space, when the dogs outside—started barking! Someone was driving into the rescue ranch. It was a FedEx truck—heading straight towards Outer Space! Then it came to a halt, near our front yard gate.

Tony was working nearby, so he went to meet the driver, before I had reached the gate. “It’s for you, Nance,” Tony said, as he carried it up our porch steps. Then I followed him into the trailer, where he sat the box down on the kitchen table. Then he opened it for me. There were three wrapped packages inside the box.

“Oh my gosh!” I said, with excitement, it’s N.M. Kelby’s books and ‘The Bad Girls Bar and Grill’ BBQ sauce! Tony handed me a package to open that was addressed to me. When I opened up my package, there were not one, but two books—’Whale Season,’ by Nicole, and her latest book, that is fixin’ to come out— ‘Murder at the Bad Girl’s Bar & Grill!’ She had signed both of them to me and everyone at the ranch! And, she included two notes—on her stationery! “Tony, Nicole is so nice to have sent us the two books and three bottles of BBQ sauce!”

“No Nance,” Tony said. “She’s great! She also sent the same two books that you have, and three more BBQ sauces for the Bonefit, too. Can I read ‘Whale Season’ first, and you read ‘Murder at the Bad Girls Bar and Grill?”

“Yes,” was my answer. “Let’s go outside and show Ben and John her care package to us. I can’t wait to show them!” Tony followed me out to where Ben and John were working, but before we reached them, I put one BBQ sauce into their vehicles, as a surprise!

John and Ben looked at the books, and thought, they were way too cool, too! When I returned to the trailer, I decided to bake some chicken thighs for lunch, so we could try out her BBQ sauce!


Well, let me tell you—it’s the best BBQ sauce that Ben, Tony and I have ever tasted and I am fixin’ to go on line and order some more for us and Kinky, and then I’m sending Nicole an e-mail to thank her! Thank you N. M. Kelby! Tony has already started reading ‘Whale Season’ and this evening I plan to start reading your latest book! I can’t wait!

P.S. The picture of Nicole's books and sauce I took in—Outer Space!

OMG! This is my favourite Blog you've done so far Nancy!! This is soooo cool! That BBQ sauce looks amazing, wow!

Tell Tony he will LOVE Whale Season. Jimmy Ray, wow, he's such a fabulous person. Bee-Jeesus it's a good story!!!

Guess who will play Leon in the film once the screenplay is a done deal? Starts with D and um, er, starts with a Y ; )) Perfect!

I'm expecting my MBGBG very soon and can't wait to meet her new cast of characters. Solas is VERY intriguing indeed. I'm telling you again, Wolfmueller's needs to get Nicole there for a book signing!!!!

Have a wonderful weekend at the Ranch!
