I went to a friend's house once and she had cheese in a cabinet. Not a block of Velveeta--cheese; like a hunk of cheddar you buy at Safeway. Not fancy cheese from a monger, who might advise you to keep it on the counter as it's so damn yummy, it'll be gone in two days.… Continue reading The Great Butter Debate…

There’s Magic in Staging…
As for perfect jobs, how about staging homes? Decorating, arranging and OCDing all over someone else's home with the sole purpose of making it look good without spending your own money? Am I dreaming? It is indeed a real thing, a real job (How to get? Advise please.) that makes homes sell faster, for more… Continue reading There’s Magic in Staging…
Will The Exercise Never Stop?…
Will the exercise never stop? God knows I want to tone up but is it necessary exercise slap me across the face at every turn? Bright and early Sunday morning, a client makes a Tai chi presentation. She's speaking on wellness and self health. My mission is twofold: client support and to see said client… Continue reading Will The Exercise Never Stop?…
Wisdom Through Sweat…
I'd like to say wisdom comes through some sort of deep exercise. Nah, truth is, on the surface of the sun lifting a martini glass can cause one to break into a sweat. What's a girl to do? Reflect on some deep thoughts from our favorite life coach Lauren. She's got some wise words for… Continue reading Wisdom Through Sweat…
Yoga With Open-Toed Shoes…
Healthy lifestyle circles me like Australian sharks. Since I choose exercise as often as I would choose diving with sharp toothed sea creatures, this can be an irritant. With every move, or non move, I am reminded to eat right, exercise, breathe deeply, and tend to mind, body, spirit connection. I'd like to say cancer… Continue reading Yoga With Open-Toed Shoes…
It’s A Compass Kind of Summer…
It's a Compass kind of summer. Jeep, that is. You can't possible think we're in the woods searching for moss on trees. Pfft. The very day that Big Al, our favorite car dealer says, “Hey take a look at the 2017 Jeep Compass," I see four of them cruising about The Dale. Is something new?… Continue reading It’s A Compass Kind of Summer…
Do You Have A Spare?…
Baby Chicken got a flat tire. It's tough when chickens are scattered about; especially when it's you who encouraged their flight. Like when you realize you never taught your daughter to change a tire. Because why? Calling AAA fits under the feminist umbrella, non? Until we realize we bought her a car but left her… Continue reading Do You Have A Spare?…
Cat Days of Summer…
It may be the dog days of summer but it's cats trending on Twitter. #ifcatsdidntexist is filled with tweets of cats doing cat stuff. What catches the eye is this thought: "Without cats, crazy cat ladies would just be crazy ladies." So where would all that crazy go? Perhaps we'd become sad and listless flailing… Continue reading Cat Days of Summer…
Fall Fashion Is Around The Corner, Non?…
Above 105 degrees, this delicate flower takes to a comfy chair and studies fashion. What else is there to do? Watch my hair expand in the humidity? Risk sweating? On the surface of the sun, even running to the grocery involves underboob sweat and possible mascara melt. It's the search for the perfect bra that… Continue reading Fall Fashion Is Around The Corner, Non?…
Magic Zip Code…
Real estate is one tough biz. How do some agents capture a zillion listings, buy and sell daily and roll about in piles of cash ala Million Dollar Listing? Is there some sort of wizardry? Or is it all, like they say, location, location, location? If so, there must be some Magic Zip Code, right?… Continue reading Magic Zip Code…
