One of Verona’s hidden treasures is not so hidden. It’s just that it’s got tight hours. It’s not a big secret, just not shared a lot until now. SWAP does not stand for Smart Women at Play, but it could! Salvage With a Purpose is the real name, and on Friday mornings at 8AM you […]

SUMMER!!! It’s not technically here until next week, but this weekend, the heat and humidity are a-comin’. Don’t hate me, but I love this weather. I like sitting in a chair on the deck with a popsicle in this weather. But I won’t be willingly running a 5K when the heat index makes it feel […]
One of my social media profiles reads, “Loud, proud, born ‘n bred Midwesterner.” It won’t take you long as you scroll through pictures of my dog, pictures of my houseplants, snippets of my Madison adventures and life at Magic 98, and more pictures of my dog, to realize that the word “proud” holds more than […]
