Of course, the Chicks make a few exceptions for shows that are truly worthy. Here’s our list of what we’re watching now!!

When you write mysteries, you tend to gravitate toward the macabre, which is how I ended up on the Creole Mourning Tour offered by St. Joseph Plantation in Louisiana. Continue reading Good Mourning
Hey, it’s National Sandwich Day (Nov. 3)! I’ll bet some of you nearly let the occasion slip by unnoticed. (Who makes up these days anyway)? The Chicks take this opportunity to wax nostalgic about school lunches, sharing with friends, and lunchbox treats. So, PB&J — yay or nay?
Halloween is almost here, which means stocking up on bite-sized candy bars, coming up with last-minute costumes, and picking out scary movies to watch on Netflix. As we get ready for ghosts, goblins, and sugar comas, we’re taking a moment to think about Halloweens past and share some of our favorite Halloween memories.
