Blessed be.
The shortest day, the longest night. It doesn’t matter what, if any, religious affiliation a person ascribes to. It is the reality of the earth and the seasons. And for our family, it is our most sacred night of the year. Tomorrow, the sun begins it’s slow journey back up into the sky, where it […]
The Holiday Bill of Rights
Meet Norbert. He’s a Norfolk pine, and he was the first houseplant I dared buy for myself that wasn’t a succulent.

Last moussaka of the season!!! Don’t miss it!
Home again.
“If I wanted to stand in sheep shit in the rain, I could’ve stayed home!” That’s Bob’s favorite quote from me from the trip. The tourism website’s description of October in Ireland was “cool and crisp…with plenty of daylight.” I’d add soggy and windy to that description. Like most Irish Americans, my “immigrant story” begins […]
