While on date night recently, my husband and I took in the Brave New Workshop’s production of A Snowplow Named Desire. We loved every moment of it’s wacky hilarity, self-depreciating Minnesota humor, and bits of naughtiness. (We attended the 5 p.m. show, so the naughtiness factor grows into the later hours. I’m told.) We had arrived a few minutes before… Read More
The Play-Doh Is Drying
Can you still smell the scent wafting from a freshly opened can of Play-Doh? I can. Many of us grew up with that iconic product and artistic-ability tester.

It was a cold day with a wind that could only be described as cranky. My husband was still out of state; so dog-walking duties fell… Read More
Souper Man
How sexy is a man in the kitchen? Let me just say there is more than one way to think “hot.†For unknown reasons my husband decided he wanted to take on not one, but two, soup recipes. Did I fear my kitchen would never be the same again? Yes. After all, he has destroyed more than his share of… Read More
