February - Love it or not so much?

So that rascally groundhog predicted six more weeks of winter. That's a lot of snow here on Mackinac Island. Hi, Mal here from the Candy-coated Mystery series. I'm a bit of a pampered pooch being as I'm part Poodle and part Bichon. I like things warm and dry. Snow and cold is not on my favorite list. It tends to ball up in my fur and make me look as if I'm a snow baby.
Here's an example:
I mean seriously, snow over my head? How's a person to...well, you know...
So six more weeks and then the snow melts and that's the best part. When the snow melts it's like the kitchen the day after a party. Things look a little disheveled and they smell a bit funky. I'm a dog. I like disheveled and funky.
I'm really good at sniffing out funky things like dead bodies and other mysterious stuff.
Plus, May is coming and with it the tourist season on Mackinac Island. I like tourist season because so many great people come for a visit. They stay a day or a week and leave happy and rested and full of fudge.
Anyway, our next book, Forever Fudge, comes out in September 2018 and by then we'll all be wishing for a little snow.
So question- do you prefer winter or summer? Should I go groundhog hunting?

  2. Spring is my favorite season of the year. It is, to me, a new beginning after the cold and snow of winter. Hate winter! dbahn(at)iw(dot)net

  3. I agree wholeheartedly with Mal - well at least about the cold and snow not so much about the funky part. They say you can put on but you can't take off but so much but that's ok. That's what they make a/c for. I'll take sunny days and being able to go outside without being wrapped in a zillion layers any day. There's just so much you can do when it's sunny and warm. As the kids say you are out of school completely in the summer. You don't have to wait for a blizzard to stay home and how much fun is that when you are just stuck at home. Maybe hunting that little groundhog might be a good idea. If Mal is anything like my 13 year old chihuahua furbaby, we won't hurt him but we sure could bury him in our toys in our closet around Groundhog's Day just so he couldn't see that dastardly shadow of his.

    Thank you for the amazing chance to win one of the Candy-coated mysteries!
