“I swear, if one more person asks me if the cinnamon rolls have a secret ingredient, I’m going to start giving them a real answer.” “The ghost of Great-Aunt Gertrude’s famous sourdough starter?” “No. The ghost of the man who tried to steal that starter last Tuesday. He’s in the walk-in freezer now. Named Kevin.” “You’re impossible. And you’re out of blueberry scones again.” “Midge took the last one. Said she needed comfort food after finding a dead body in her herb garden. Again.” “That’s the third one this month. Is the village council going to do something about the gardening club? Or the rival jam society?” “They’re having a special meeting tonight. I’m bringing a batch of my ‘Tranquility Tarts’—heavy on the chamomile, light on the gossip. You want one?” “Only if you tell me what really happened to Kevin.” “Kevin? Oh, he’s fine. He’s just working off the cost of the stolen starter by washing dishes. Gertrude’s ghost is the one I’d watch out for. She’s been hanging by the mixer, turning the dough pink.” “That’s not comforting.” “Neither is a stolen starter. But free dishwashing is free dishwashing.”
