So they’re more knicknacks than candle-candles around here. And yet, despite not being a candle fan, I have a whole heckin’ collection:
Dearly Departed: Susan Van Kirk’s Endurance Mysteries
It’s been a while but, y’all, how’s this for return to the Dearly Departed feature?
Susan Van Kirk, President of the Guppies is here today to talk about the Endurance mysteries, a victim of the Five Star mystery line shut down.
