After some time off, Pinot & Pie is back with some exciting news!  I took a break to realize a long-time dream – writing my first novel!  I can’t believe it is actually finished and will be released this spring!  Details for where to get your electronic or print copy are coming soon, but as a sneak preview I can tell you that murder and romance are on the menu.  The plot combines my love of mystery, romance, food, and some indulgent, adult beverages.  Get ready for a fun ride!

Pinot & Pie also plays a role in the book, so I will share recipes for the food and drinks here as well as post short tidbits on my author website jdcarothers.com.  You can learn more about my first book and future books planned for the series there as well.  Soon you will be able to sign up for updates posted on that website too.

But let’s not forget that Valentine’s Day is Monday.  If you are looking for the perfect way to toast someone special, check out these fresh raspberries filled with chocolate hazelnut spread.  Frozen, they are a decadent addition to champagne.  Check out the recipe for Chocolate Hazelnut Filled Raspberries.  Cheers!

I hope you are as excited as I am that Pinot & Pie is back, and I hope you will check out my new adventures in writing!
