Holiday

You Know What I Like…Not

By Michele Wojciechowski on December 17, 2020

Ah, holiday shopping. While fun for some, for others it’s the bane of their existence. I fall somewhere in between. If I’m shopping early, it’s fun. If it’s late, and I’m rushing like a dog that’s got the “zoomies,” it’s not fun.  In fact, I’d rather just have the zoomies and run around my house […]

Countless Christmas Catalogs

Countless Christmas Catalogs

By Michele Wojciechowski on December 10, 2020

When I was a little girl, one of the most magical things about the Christmas season was in a book that arrived at our home each year. At about a couple of inches thick, it was filled with the dreams of every good girl and boy at Christmastime. (Well, I’m sure the bad ones like […]

Now That It’s Almost Fall, It’s Beginning To Look a Lot Like…Christmas?

By Michele Wojciechowski on September 11, 2014

I was looking on Facebook over the weekend, and a friend of mine shared a photo from a store she was in. All you could see were lighted and decorated Christmas trees. You read that correctly. And it wasn’t in a Christmas store.

Our Own Little Furry Santa

Our Own Little Furry Santa

By Michele Wojciechowski on June 4, 2014

As you can tell by past posts, Riley is an, um, unusual puppy. And just one of the different and cute things he does is that he plays Santa year ‘round with my stepdad. How does he do this? Well, for some reason unknown to us, Riley loves to carry items from throughout the house […]

Your Annual Guide to Gifts you Need to Get…or Not

By Michele Wojciechowski on December 19, 2013

As I’ve written in years past, my husband and I receive over 100 catalogues each holiday season. You read that right—over 100. I don’t know why we get so many because we order from very few of them. But I’m guessing that they buy lists from other companies of folks to mail to hoping against […]

Ornamental Differences

By Michele Wojciechowski on December 5, 2013

My husband and I have been married for a long time. A really long time. As in, since God was a boy. Well, not that long, but you get the picture. And when you’ve been together with someone you love for many years, you think you know everything about that person. Their likes, dislikes; what […]

The Incredible Shrinking Groceries

By Michele Wojciechowski on November 21, 2013

Dear Readers—I know you’re out there, and sometimes I even hear from you. Such was the case when Essex resident Howard Sheckells wrote to me. He suggested a column topic that hits close to home for everyone—especially if you’ll be heading to the grocery store to shop for Thanksgiving dinner.

Trick-or-Treating: The Rules

By Michele Wojciechowski on October 24, 2013

Halloween is almost here. My husband and I have noticed that in the last few years we’ve been getting quite a lot of—ahem–older trick-or-treaters. Like practically college age. So we’ve come up with some more rules this year that we’d like the kids to follow.

Christmas in October?

By Michele Wojciechowski on October 10, 2013

There are two radio stations in central New York State that have begun playing Christmas music… Um, you do remember that it’s only October, right? In fact, it’s hot right now. “Indian Summer,” as we used to call it when I was a kid, has shown up, and we actually had to put the air […]
