Slow Cooker Steak Stroganoff #Vmburns #Giveaway

V.M. Burns: I've mentioned before that I love my slow cooker. I think this recipe might have been one of the first recipes that I ever made in a slow cooker. It came from a recipe book that I've had so long, I don't even remember where I got it. It's called, FIX & FORGET, and the copyright is from 1989. I added 1/2 Teaspoon of Lawry's Season Salt and skipped the parsley. Also, the recipe specifies to cut the beef into strips. When I first made the recipe, I measured and made sure to get the sizes exactly perfect. Later, I realized, it didn't matter. They just need to be bite-sized. The recipe is simple and very forgiving.

MURDER ON TOUR

Bookstore owner and Michigander Samantha Washington is thrilled to see her debut historical mystery finally on the shelves, but a killer seems determined to steal away the spotlight . . .
 
While Sam wraps up her first whirlwind book tour, Nana Jo has kept Market Street Mysteries running smoothly. The last stop is a prestigious book festival in Sam’s hometown of North Harbor, Michigan. But not everyone thinks the guest of honor, bestselling author Judith Hunter, deserves stellar reviews. Sam witnesses nasty arguments between Judith and two different authors—who accuse her of plagiarism and sabotage . . .
 
When a publicist is poisoned during a cocktail reception, Sam wonders if the killer missed the intended target. It’s a twist that echoes the plot of Sam’s mystery, Murder at Wickfield Lodge. But fact can be stranger—and deadlier—than fiction. How much collateral damage is the killer willing to risk? With feisty Nana Jo and the girls from Shady Acres Retirement Village lending a hand, Sam tries to solve the case before the festival delivers another fatality . . .
