My late mom was an excellent cook. She made amazing lasagna, stuffed cabbage, spaghetti sauce, chili—the list goes on and on. But the one treat she made each Christmas season, the one that everyone desired, was her creamy, rich chocolate fudge. She would make tons and tons of fudge and give it out to the […]

I began my last column talking about our dog, Riley, and how he’s cute. He is cute. Very, very cute… For the most part, having him sleep in our bed with my husband and me is not bad. Because, well, we’re asleep. And if we’re both in a deep sleep, Riley could have a party, […]

Our dogs, Riley and Mae, are really, really cute… And it’s this cuteness that, some days—or in this case, nights—is the only thing that keeps them alive. Truth be told, I wouldn’t hurt them, ever. But I would seriously think about throwing them out of our bedroom. Because, my friends, you just haven’t lived until […]

One of my dogs has gone mad. No, not the kind where she’s got rabies and running havoc through 1890s London. And it’s not the kind of mad where she made a potion in her doggie laboratory, and has now turned into Ms. God (Get it? Dr. Dog and Ms. God…Okay, never mind.) It’s certainly […]
