One of my funniest friends is spewing the contents of her purse for us today for #ProjectPurseDump. I've known Terri since we first began this writers journey. I happy danced for her when she got her first contract for Diners, Dives and Deadends, and she returned the favor when I sold Cooking Up Love. Terri is letting one of her colorful characters take over for her today. Let's stalk her, shall we? |

Hey, everybody! I’m Sugar de la Tarte. As a retro pin up girl and burlesque performer, I keep a few essentials in my bag at all times. I never know when someone might recognize me, so I like to look my best. Hey, everybody! I’m Sugar de la Tarte.

Since I love my deep red lips, I wouldn’t be caught dead without a tube of Mac Red.

So what else do I keep in my sweet little cosmetic bag?

My compact, natch. Who wants to walk around with a shiny nose?
Not me, honey.

Since I got inked—isn’t she lovely—I need to have a tube of sunscreen on hand. I don’t want this beauty to fade.

Last but not least, I carry my phone, but I had to bling out my case. In my world, presentation is everything!

You can catch more of Sugar de la Tarte in Diner Knock Out—a Rose Strickland Mystery by Terri L. Austin at Amazon or Barnes.
About Terri L. Austin As a girl, I thought I'd outgrow dreaming up stories and creating imaginary friends. Instead, I've made a career of it. I met my own Prince Charming and together we live in Missouri. Follow me on one of the Social Media sites (check out the Follow links on this page) and send me a message. I love to hear from readers.
