The Fool's Puzzle Tour lists the places in San Luis Obispo, CA,  that I used as inspiration for the places in the book.

The Irish Chain Tour takes you around San Luis Obispo, CA, and neighboring towns.

Kansas Troubles is the only book in the Benni Harper series where I used actual place names. I did invent the names of restaurants to fit the story, though I also used a few real ones.  

I've gathered a few recipes I mention in the books.  Be sure to try the Yankee Cake.  It's my favorite.
