Hello, this is Frances. I am pleased to announce that I have returned to the library. I have missed everyone and am delighted to be back.
 
Holidays are coming around. Here is one of my favorite recipes for the holidays:
 
Almond Bark Puff Corn
Ingredients:
1 bag of Puff Corn
1 package of almond bark
 
Melt the almond bark, start with 30 seconds, stir, then in 15 second intervals until a smooth consistency. Do not over cook (You can melt it in a double boiler pan on the stove).
In a large mixing bowl, pour the entire bag of puff corn into the bowl, then add the melted almond bark and stir until all the puffs are coated. 
Lay out a piece of wax paper and pour out the contents of the bowl on the wax paper, spreading it out to cool and dry. 
At this point, you can add in your favorite color sprinkles!
Once it is dry, it can be broken apart and eaten! 
You can store it in an air-tight container. Mine never makes it to the container!

Billion-dollar ransom : a thriller by James Patterson
Billion-dollar ransom : a thriller
by James Patterson

When five members of a billionaire's family are kidnapped in a perfectly timed attack, FBI Special Agent Nicky Gordon faces off against a ruthless mastermind, racing to outsmart a plan that's as precise as it is dangerous. 
My Book choice for the month:
Murder in Highbury
by Vanessa Kelly

"Less than one year into her marriage to respected magistrate George Knightley, Emma has grown unusually content in her newfound partnership and refreshed sense of independence. The height of summer sees the former Miss Woodhouse gracefully balancing themeticulous management of her elegant family estate and a flurry of social engagements, with few worries apart from her beloved father's health...But cheery circumstances change in an instant when Emma and Harriet Martin, now the wife of one of Mr. Knightley's tenant farmers, discover a hideous shock at the local church. The corpse of Mrs. Augusta Elton, the vicar's wife, has been discarded on the altar steps-the ornate necklace she often wore stripped from her neck...As a chilling murder mystery blooms and chaos descends upon the tranquil village of Highbury, the question isn't simply who committed the crime, but who wasn't secretly wishing for the unpleasant woman's demise. When suspicions suddenly fall on a harmless local, Emma-armed with wit, unwavering determination, and extensive social connections-realizes she must discreetly navigate an investigation of her own to protect the innocent and expose the ruthless culprit hiding in plain sight"
