Do you love getting gifts? Me too. I get such a super joyful kick over receiving an unexpected treat, it’s amazing! One of my best friends always brings me something back from her vacations. Isn’t that nice? I love it. She and her husband took a trip enjoying a number of different National Parks out ...
Neighborhood Library on Princess Anne Street, Fredericksburg, Virginia
I had no idea when taking this photograph that I would be reflected right on to the glass cover. Too funny. Please look beyond the bright red flowered retro print cotton shirt to relish the beauty and purpose of this photo - a neighborhood library!! How cool is this? Everyone in the neighborhood is invited ...
I don’t eat candy, but
I am not a candy eater. I do like ice cream, so if I am going to splurge with sugar, chances are it will be Ben & Jerry’s Cherry Garcia or Haagen-Dazs Cookies & Cream or Swiss Vanilla Almond or maybe the Vanilla Milk Chocolate Almond snack size ice cream bars. It’s a very big decision. ...

When the Truth is Stranger Than Fiction
Sometimes truth is stranger than fiction. Telling the truth can actually be a lot more fun than making it up. I teach on the university level and am amazed by how often I'm asked by my students, "Is that the truth or you just made it up?" I tend to sputter a response, "Of course ...
