Seven Not So Guilty Pleasures: #MFRWAuthor Blog Challenge
For Week 10 of the Marketing For Romance Writers 52-week blog challenge, the topic is Seven Guilty Pleasures.
What’s to be Guilty About?
My seven guilty pleasures are really pretty innocent–in moderation! So without further ado:
Eating Girl Scout Cookies
I’m fond of the lemony ones. My least favorite are the chocolate mint ones, but my son, Mr. Protein, loves them. For him, those really are guilty pleasures. I have one box left in the freezer just waiting for him to load some carbs.
Beer
I like wine, too, but it gives me a headache. My favorites are European-style lagers.
TV Binging
Historical shows, please! See my Week 3 blog challenge post on this topic.
Fabric Shopping
And shopping for yarn and craft stuff. Okay, maybe THIS really is a guilty pleasure. You crafters and seamstresses out there will know exactly what I’m talking about. I have some beautiful yarn I bought 10 years ago that I need to get crackin’ on!
I did manage to make a pretty nice gown out of this blue fabric. See my Week 6 blog post.
Pizza pig-outs!
Who doesn’t like pizza?
A Long Hot Bath
I don’t have to elaborate!
And finally…
Curling up with a Good Romance Novel
One with plenty of adventure, please, and extra points if it’s historical!
This is a blog hop, so follow along with my fellow MFRW authors to see what pleases them!

Re: “A long, hot bath” … I can’t remember the last time I took a bath. (Can you smell me from there?) No, because I shower instead. My list.
Haha, Ed! Actually, the dog bathes in our tub more than I do. (Double scrubbing for me–her and the tub). I’m always in a rush, and showers are faster!
I prefer beer to wine, also. Best lager I ever drank is Czech Budvar (the real original Budweiser) sold as Czechwar in the states if you can find it.
I grew up in St. Louis and had an uncle who worked at Anheuser Busch his whole career. I’m going to look for Czechwar at Bevmo, Lyndi. Maybe we could hoist a couple at the California Dreamin’ Conference!
I’m looking forward to getting our bathroom redone so I can enjoy nice long baths again. Girl Scout cookies come around once a year, you have to get them while you can.
We have one little neighbor girl scout who hits our house every year. It’s fun watching her grow up a little more every year.
I love pizza pigouts and Thin Mints.
Those mints are so popular! My son would agree with you on that!
OMG! Girl Scout cookies (specifically Thin Mints)!
Love the Thin Mints, but have you tried the S’Mores? OMG…..the ones we got (more like Fudge Squares from Keebler) were okay, but the ones my mom had (shortbread with chocolate and marshmallow cream) were AWESOME!
Yes, those were good this year! I’m still in love with the lemon ones. I bought my last box yesterday from the girls selling outside the grocery store. I think that makes 15 boxes for the season.
