Hook Up the Sun
The big day arrived bright and early when Joseph rang the doorbell at a quarter to 8. There’s nothing like a crew chomping at the bit before the world has woken. I was glad to have three hours of quiet time before the commotion began. Despite expressed estimates of effort, interruption and schedule, the job…

My First Cooking Contest Featured Nailed It!
For most folks, Netflix’s Nailed It! is an easy binge-watch entertainment. For me, it was the inspiration behind the first corporate cooking contest during COVID.

Out of civic duty, listen to His acceptance speech for perspective on the new regime; it is better heard in the company of a peanut gallery of friends or in sound bites with pauses for interruption unless you have a stomach for his rhetoric. For better or worse the address…
