Corset

I love you. Those three words have become “the moment” in movies, books, songs, even real life. It seems we have been pausing for “I love you” to slip from our lover’s lips since the beginning of time. They are iconic words, but what lies beneath can be as vast and varied as the people…

Red Socks

You can be the outcast or be the backlash of somebody’s lack of love, or you can start speaking up. More than anything else, more than any other “life skill,” I wish this for my children. Actually, I wish it for all of us. It’s Friday.  Enjoy. That’s all from the laundry room.  Sleep Naked.

Inside Out

You never take the one on display or the one on top. I’m a little obsessed with going to the bottom of the barrel, or the back of the shelf when I pick things out.  I will look at something, decide if I want it and then take the one that is five boxes back.…

Bike Shorts

I’m pretty sure there is a God. I’m also confident Jesus was a special person that had a huge impact on humankind.  He seems to have lived a noble life we can learn from. That’s my take on the institution that is religion, those three sentences. I don’t go to church, I’m not concerned with…

Pocket Square

Above all else, I like quirky.  Add intelligent to quirky and I’m a goner. I love John McIntrye. You may, or may not, know that he was the copy editor and is now a production manager for the Baltimore Sun.  No, I do not live in Maryland, but he is a pretty big deal.  Mr.…

Leather Pants

One hundred and eighty-six in the world.  Everyone has his or her own definitions of badass, exceptional, above the curve…rockstar. This would be one of mine. That’s all from the laundry room.  Sleep Foam Memory Bed.

Off White

I really only pray for one thing. I think what I do is still called praying. I don’t believe in or belong to a particular religion and I don’t read specific books or how-to manuals regarding God or Jesus, or the host of other characters. I don’t go to church or kneel down to pray.…

Hidden Pocket

If you mix an egg white and citrus in a drink, the acid sort of cooks the egg white and makes the drink creamy and yummy. I did not know that. I suppose I knew meringue is a similar concept, but I’d never seen an egg white put into a cocktail.  I like surprises.  Not…

Zombie Prom Dress

I may be naive, but I’m not really concerned that the devil, if he/she/it even exists, is going to take over my children because they go all Bela Lugosi one day a year.  I feel pretty comfortable all children, for that matter, are safe. Can’t we leave Halloween alone?  Pretty please. I’m a Halloween fan,…
