"Equal and Opposite Reactions"
By Patti Liszkay
Only $3.99 on Amazon Kindle

"Equal and Opposite Reactions is a rollicking good yarn about complex relationships and emotions in middle-class American culture. The author has created an incredibly funny romantic comedy, which transcends the ubiquitous romantic triangle and expands it into a quadrangle, complicated by the interweaving of relationships between the children of the principal characters. Cleverly plotted, twists and turns, and exceptionally well written, this part drama and part slapstick comedy is a tour-de-force. Bravo Patti."
- R. Bruce Logan, "The Narrative Arc"

Another Day, Another Party

     ...Continued from previous post:
  Most of us were leaving Wickenburg for Phoenix the morning after the Quinceañera (see previous post), except for Claire and Miguel, who would be staying a few more days to visit with Miguel's family.
     However after those of us who were leaving checked out of the Best Western Rancho Grande,

...before heading out to Phoenix we first headed over to Miguel's family's house.

Behind the house is a courtyard,

...on the other side of which is an outdoor kitchen,

...that Miguel's mother Lolita uses to prepare food for big events,

...such as was this day's event, a birthday party for her two grandchildren, Quino, who'll be turning five,

...and Memo - here with his cousin Brisa - who'll soon be three.

The yard was set up and decked out for the guests,

...some of whom had already arrived by the time we got there around 11:30 am,

...and some of whom were were dipping into Lolita's famous Menudo - also known as "Hangover Soup" - made from beef tripe (which is cow stomach) and hominy. (Mayhaps for some the soup was needed as a curative for the previous evening's revels).

We joined the guests,

...and though I bypassed the Menudo - all the more beef tripe for the hangover sufferers - I did have one of Lolita's delicious chiles rellenos,

...a poblano pepper stuffed with queso fresco - a creamy white cheese used in Mexican dishes - then dipped in egg yolks and pan fried.

Miguel's brother Juan Carlos and his wife Dulce.

Claire, Miguel, and Dulce.

There showed up among the guests a king snake, which set me to shrieking (like Indiana Jones, I, too, hate snakes) until it was explained to me that the king snakes keep the rattle snakes away. "Make him stay!" I cried, but, alas, I guess all my squawking sent him slithering off in search of a quieter place.

Tommy, Emily, Callie, Theresa, Tom and I left the party around 1:30 pm.
Before we left I was able to get a glimpse of one of the birthday cakes made by Lolita, upon which she was putting the finishing touches.

Later in the day, as we learned from Claire and the Facebook photos, the party revved up with the arrival of about 150 guests,

...a mariachi band,

...dancing,

...a piñata,

...and lots of food.

Meanwhile we were back on the road to Phoenix.

Hello everyone,
I’d like to take this opportunity to express my heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Jakuta, a powerful spell caster who helped me reunite with my ex-lover after a painful breakup.

Within 48 hours of the spell being cast, my ex reached out, apologizing for the hurt and promising to make amends. I was overjoyed and welcomed her back into my life. If you’re facing similar relationship challenges or other difficulties, I highly recommend contacting Dr. Jakuta. His spell casting abilities are truly remarkable.

I've been attempting to expand my wine business in my hometown in White Plains. For the past 7 years, I do play the lottery in my spare time, but on this blessed day I came across an article about Lord Meduza's spell to win the lottery. I contacted Lord Meduza to see if it would work and after I agreed to his terms and conditions for completing the task for me, he performed his magical powers for me and within 48 hours, he provided me with the numbers I needed to play the lottery, and I followed his directions. I found out at the store that I was the winner of a $105 million jackpot. For a moment I felt uncertain but I looked again and I saw it was real. As I speak to you, My level has been elevated from grass to grace and I've come to know that life is more spiritual and with the Lord Meduza spell, you can actually win the lottery. Lord Meduza contacts are as follows;

My husband changed dramatically towards me, doesn’t communicate anymore. He disrespects me and accuses me falsely of infidelity because of wicked gossip …but I’m simply AMAZED aat the results of PRIEST AWESOME (AWESOME SPELL TEMPLE) who did a reunion love spell for me. Everything is going so well and EXACTLY how he said it would be. Even though it took 3 days to fully progress, it was so worth it because things are just about at perfection! How he took my situation and completely turned it around to give me exactly what I wanted is beyond me, but something I will never question and just be completely grateful for. God Bless Dr. DAVID for turning sorrow into happiness. You can also contact PRIEST AWESOME : give you 100% guarantee that he will help you.. https://web.facebook.com/Awesomelovepelltemple Email him: [email protected] or WhatsApp him on +2347051149457

This testimony is shared as my personal belief and experience. In November 2022, my life changed beyond anything I could have imagined when I won the $2.04 billion Powerball lottery. Before this blessing, I was overwhelmed by financial struggles and emotional pain, and I had almost given up hope.During that dark time, I was introduced to Oniha Spells, a spell caster who encouraged me to stay faithful and believe that change was possible. After following the spiritual guidance given to me, I felt a deep sense of peace and certainty. When I later realized I had won the lottery, I was overcome with tears of joy and gratitude. This experience strengthened my belief in hope, faith, and positive energy.

I acquired my first home at the beginning of the year. To some, lottery players appear ridiculous, while we view it as a chance for an improved future. I'm known as Megan Taylor and I have played the lottery for ten years, yet I haven't won anything substantial. In my pursuit of understanding how to win better, I was advised to consult Lord Meduza the Priest who provided me with the precise 6 numbers that helped me secure the Mega Millions jackpot of $277 million after using his spell powers and following his guidance. Lord Meduza services is top notch, and I believe your dreams aren't finished unless you decide they are. Contact Lord Meduza the Priest, and he will assist you in realizing your aspirations.

My name is Pamela Dietrich, and I want to share my experience to express my heartfelt gratitude to Oniha Spells. Before this breakthrough, my life was filled with financial stress and uncertainty. I had tried many things over the years with no real change, and I was close to giving up hope. After being introduced to Oniha Spells, I decided to take a leap of faith. The guidance, reassurance, and support I received throughout the process gave me a sense of calm and confidence I hadn’t felt in a long time. Not long after, something truly incredible happened. I won $3 million in the lottery. This life-changing moment still feels unreal to me. It has allowed me to clear my debts, support my family, and finally live without constant financial fear. I genuinely believe that Oniha Spells played a meaningful role in helping align my path toward this blessing. Anyone can also reach out to Oniha Spells via.

Praise be to the incredible Lord Meduza, I've never seen or heard of his lottery spell failing, not even once, and that includes my own experience. Every day, I feel renewed blessings after connecting with the Great Lord Meduza, who gifted me my winning six-digit lottery numbers that won me $740,000,000 million dollars by using his magical skills to foresee the outcome. I'm a dad of four, and it's been a few years since I lost my wife to cancer; I miss her terribly. To wrap things up, I really want to thank Great Meduza for being so good at what he does. His guidance and lessons were applied swiftly and precisely, leading us to the best possible result, which we definitely achieved. You can reach him by email: [email protected] or check out his website via ( lordmeduzatemple.com ) for more information. Stay blessed and know you're in good hands with Lord Meduza.

Google AI has caused me more problems than it has solved. I was connected to a cryptocurrency trader through Google AI and lost my hard-earned money to a scam. If it weren't for the assistance of Lord Meduza, whom my sister-in-law recommended to me, I wouldn’t have been able to win the $435 MILLION Mega Millions Lottery. My life could have taken a drastic turn due to the overwhelming bills I faced after being cheated by the crypto traders. Lord Meduza utilized his extraordinary spell powers to determine the perfect six numbers I needed to win the Mega Millions Lottery, and I followed his instructions to play those numbers. I am incredibly thankful for the support, love, and kindness he has shown, which is beyond measure.

I was convinced after using the numbers provided by DR OGBO when I told him I wanted to win the lottery because of the post I saw online about his winning numbers, he said he has helped a lot of people and I won't be an exception to that, he put in work for me after I provided the necessary Information he requested from me, after then he gave me the numbers to play after 24hours and directed me on how to play and when I should play them which I did, I won £5.2 million pounds, I'm excited that my dream has come through, Dr OGBO is the best when it comes to winning the lottery with spell and prayers Email: [email protected] OR WhatsApp +2348110968476 thank you

Good day viewers, I wish to share my testimony with all of you. I have daily 9 to 5 jobs, but while I work, I try my luck at playing instant Lotto. On this particular day, I decided to seek help online regarding tips for winning the lottery and I saw many individuals testifying about OGBO spells. I reached out to him and informed him that I needed help to win the lottery, and he clarified the process to me stating that after he casts the spell, it will take 48 hours for him to provide me the winning numbers which I accepted. I followed all his instructions and he provided me with the numbers to enter the Lottery. After the draw the following morning I received a notification on the Lottery app on my phone indicating that I was the lucky winner of $273 million on the New Jersey Lottery and I’m here to extend my heartfelt gratitude to OGBO Spell If you seek help in your life, WhatsApp +2348110968476 or Email: [email protected]

I never thought I would one day tell a story like this. Before meeting Oniha Spells, life felt like an endless struggle. Every effort led to disappointment, and hope felt distant. Dr. Oniha guided me through a process of belief, patience, and spiritual clarity. Slowly, my fear disappeared and optimism took its place. When the unimaginable happened and I received £161,653,000 (one hundred and sixty-one million, six hundred and fifty-three thousand pounds), I was overwhelmed with emotion. It felt like the universe finally responded to my faith. This experience changed my life forever. I strongly recommend Oniha Spells to anyone who needs help.
