Usually when I attend the Icehouse Auction on Friday nights I find something that I want to bid on. My new juicer which appears to be almost never used. or these 4 Yankee candles which are brand new and I got for the fraction of the retail price. But nothing prepared me for the chalk Read more

Several friends and I have talked about my uncanny connection to people through friends of friends of friends. For whatever reason, I’ve always known I have a quick mind and it has enhanced my ability to draw from my hard drive and put two and two together…I get total pleasure making a friendship with someone Read more
