So the other day I walked into the Magic bullpen, the office we share, looking for some tape to seal up an envelope. I said to Ginger and Jillene, “Do either of you have any sticky tape?” They both looked at me like I had two heads, so I decided I’d better explain. “Sticky tape, […]

I’m not ashamed to admit that I’m kind of a girly girl. I like pretty, shiny things. I like things that smell luxurious, and I appreciate the soft textures and scents of lotions and soaps.

I remember when we had to add three digits to it too. Our suburbs had outgrown the number of phone numbers available for our area, so […]

Oh, the healing power of chicken noodle soup and oranges. I truly believe in it. Over the last couple weeks, I had double pink eye. I went to the doctor who said, “Well, it’s viral. So it’s just got to run its course like a cold would.” Within the next couple of days I got […]

Yes, it has been dipping down into nearly double digits below zero outside, but my little pet of 29 years has been holding his own, in his own sunbeam. This is not a Photoshopped image—Joe regularly does this yoga stretch on his own. (It’s not because he’s seen me doing it. Although it’s lovely for […]

If I had a nickel for every time someone said to me, “You’re from Minnesota/Wisconsin! You should be used to the cold,” I’d have a big bag of nickels. Has anyone ever said that to you? As Midwesterners, we don’t get used to the cold. We just live with it. And if we’re lucky, we […]
