I showed my artwork to a friend the other day and she was blown away, an ooh-ed and wow-ed as she looked through the paintings and drawings. She napped a couple of photos of some of them, and texted them to a mutual friend of ours. It was pretty obvious that...

Roaming the isles at Trader Joe’s a lot of times results in discovering something new and interesting. This was the case with a new product I found, a multi pack of loose leaf teas in a variety of flavors. But what sold me on buying it wasn’t the curious flavors of Golden Coconut Masala or...
