After the main course, comprised of Slice of Life and A Second Helping, and the desserts, Cream Puffs and Other Goodies, Linda A. M. Schneider's fourth short story collection is meant to be the after-dinner walk in the park with friends. It contains some reflections, special items, AND maybe an ice cream cone en route. She hopes that her readers will enjoy these treats, another dozen of new ones, along with two repeated favorites. The new stories include some tying up of loose ends about characters in the other collections. The stories and essays in this collection have friendship as their common theme, including friendships between people and God, among people, and between people and other creatures in God's universe.
