On a hot
summer day,
Jana Panter
is happiest in
the garden.
Thankfully,
she and her
husband live
in Seattle,
where the
rainy weather
provides much indoor time to
contemplate and write. With her
kids grown and gone, Jana relies
on her dogs for aggravation.

Mark Liskey and
his wife, Lisa,
have developed a
serious addiction
to melons. It's
not uncommon
to see Mark
roaming
grocery stores
at midnight
looking for a
ripe cantaloupe. On Lisa's birthday,
Mark made her a watermelon "cake"
(yes, the cake is actually watermelon).
Mark and Lisa also rescue cats—
Rocky J. Vincenzo is their latest.
