We've all heard of, and perhaps even experienced, the "Continental Breakfast." On occasion, I've encountered it in hotels and it has generally left me unimpressed with its often dried out bread items and unimaginative accompaniments. If I were from "the Continent" and was presented with one of those bastardized versions of what should be the … Continue reading Frühstück

April Moms@Work & Women@Work catch-up
Notice I said catch-up instead of catsup or ketchup. We all (or those of us who hang on every word of dialogue in Mad Men at least) know there's only 1 ketchup.

I wrote about getting exercise … Continue reading An exercise in acceptance

Notes and observations from the road – Day 1
Taking the bus from economy parking became a sobering experience when the driver explained that we would have to get off the bus and wait for the State Police to inspect the bus with their dog, because a previous passenger had left a piece of luggage behind. I've flown to Europe many times but don't … Continue reading Notes and observations from the road – Day 1
