Over a month ago, I spoke at the Erma Bombeck Writers’ Workshop. It’s a conference for humor writers that attracts folks from all over the world. Sounds great, right?

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.

Our puppy, Riley, is really, really cute And it’s his cuteness that, some days—or in this case, nights—is the only thing that keeps him alive. Truth be told, I wouldn’t hurt the little guy, ever. But I would seriously think about throwing him out of our bedroom.

I have a confession to make. Now, before you get all freaked out, let me assure you, it’s not something that would land me on the cover of a tabloid or have the paparazzi camped out in front of my home. You won’t see my face all over the internet because of it, followed by […]

I have a confession: I’m not really big on shopping at the grocery store. I know, I know. Don’t know why, but it’s just not one of my favorite things to do. But since we have to eat, I sometimes must foray into the local market to pick up vittles. Recently, though, I noticed that […]

I’ve come up with this crazy notion. I think that from now on foods and drinks should taste like what they are—that particular food or drink. I know—insane isn’t it? I guess I’m just an old-fashioned kind of gal.

A few years ago, when gas prices were out the roof, I was naïve. I thought that it wouldn’t happen again — at least not so soon. As prices inch to $4 per gallon and more, I find myself longing for the days of $3 gas. How nuts is that?

As a city girl transplanted into the country, I’ve had a lot that I’ve needed to learn to get used to. But there’s one thing that is driving me absolutely batty. And it’s not the bats that fly overhead at night (way overhead, thank goodness).

I’ve said before that I was born and raised a city girl. For a number of years, though, my husband and I have lived in the country; some people refer to it as “the sticks.” For the most part, I love it. I love the sound of crickets at night. I love watching tons of […]

Ahhhh…spring is officially here. The birds are singing, plants are blooming, and some days have actually been warm. So why do we insist on celebrating the arrival of such a momentous, beautiful season by cleaning? That’s just so wrong.
