(Shauni) *Grabbing a drink looking at Kim* Oh you meant them Sorry *laughing*
Let the Interview Begin -- Bwahahahahaha:

Cats or Dogs? ( Hey what about Birds and lizards? )

I have a dog and a cat. But my dog steals my heart. She is a big baby.

Salty or Sweet (This of course means when you’re “playing” because this isn’t an adult Goddess site for nothin’)? Chocolate?

What dish do you make perfect?

Hmm.. Perfect? Chicken Cutlets.. with a slice of Lemon on top. Perfecto!

What dish have you messed up completely by burning or over cooking it?

I don't think I have time to list all of the messed up dishes!! My poor family... I am good at cooking, baking is not for me, I ALWAYS burn the cookies! So normally, we just eat the raw dough.

Can you give us your favorite Christmas cookie recipe?

My fave Christmas cookie are those shortbreads with jelly in the middle. I don't know what they are called, but I can't stop with just one!

Now is the part where we let you do some shameless self promotion of your artwork. Please tell the readers something about what you’re currently working on or what has just been released. We’re shameless when it comes to pimpin’ new stuff!
Well, I am a cover artist. I have had the pleasure to work on so many wonderful author's books this year! I pinch myself every day!
