Just when you thought it was safe to read my column again, I’ve done what should very rarely be attempted in the movies–the dreaded sequel. But don’t fear; I don’t expect this to turn into a George Lucas-like scenario with many sequels and prequels over a span of 30 years. Unless of course, I could […]

Our dog, Riley, is one of the most laid-back, Type B, chillin’-like-a-villain pups that we’ve ever had. Except when it comes to his food.

As I write this, my husband and I are on Staycation. And during our Staycations (back when we first took them, they didn’t have a name—so we called them “We’re too broke to go away againcations”) we watch movies. Lots of them. And one thing we’ve realized that there are many things done only in […]

Mice—for being such little critters, they sure scare the heck out of a lot of people. I’ve never been scared of mice. Well, at least not in the way that they scare people in cartoons, where someone jumps on a chair screaming at the site of one. That said, I’m not too thrilled about them […]

My late Mom was a real trip. She was strong, kind, and funny. She was also straight to the point, no BS, “tell it like it is.” Luckily for me, I’ve inherited all that from her and more. But in this column, I’m going to focus on “telling it like it is.” People used to […]

My husband is a strong and brave man. Lots of things that bother me never seem to even phase him. Like a science experiment—that was once some sort of food—in our fridge. It doesn’t bother him at all. He just dumps it out and washes the goop from the storage container. Easy peasy. Or like […]

I grew up in Baltimore City, and my exposure to wildlife in terms of birds was either pigeons, Tweety Bird from the Warner Brothers’ cartoons, or Big Bird on Sesame Street—and he doesn’t even fly! When my husband and I moved to our dream home more than a decade ago, we got all “birded out.” […]

I promised a lot of things when I got married—for better or worse, richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish until death do us part. But there were two things that I wouldn’t promise. One was to Obey (“What, am I your dog?” was what I think I said…), and […]
