Life and Scare at 50

A rush to the ER and two birthday surprises in 50 hours in the week of my golden birthday.

Embracing Our Savage Side

Eating with our hands helped us rediscover our roots.

A good friend is leaving town. We still get to see each other whenever we want.

Thanksgiving felt like it was going to be a dud. We did something about it.

History can be preserved in an icy treat.

Eye candy. All lit up.

9/11 taught me that we, as a people, can survive hard things.

We recreate our village when we live far away from home.

Distance does not immune us from pain.

The future of equal power, pay, and opportunities for girls and minority groups depends how we look at ourselves and others.
