Keeping track of “stuff” is critical–you’ll need a list such as this should you ever need to make an insurance claim. Be sure that you also periodically print a report listing your belongings and keep it in your safe or offsite (even better!). Thanks to Brett Pickett for this helpful link. I liked what CNET [...]

This is totally off base as far as real estate goes, but just enough fun that I thought I’d share. I received this recipe this morning from a southern friend and am quoting it intact. I can tell you that as “bleagh” as this is to me, my husband thought this looked fantastic! Must be a [...]

I love Seafair in Seattle. I grew up in Seattle and, luckily, my family also loved the Hydros. As a young girl, we would always, always go to “Hydro Sunday”–spending the day sitting on the beach, having a picnic and generally just sharing in the giddy chaos that surrounded the event. SOOOO much fun. The [...]

One of my favorite gentle clowns (other than the humble clown I live with and married, of course!) is Red Skelton. A few days ago while surfing the Web and looking for a gift for my hubby, I stumbled across Red’s recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance. Haven’t seen this in years! I hope you [...]

Some time ago I stumbled on a quirky little site, Random Web Site , that specializes in taking one to random sites, usually obscure. It’s a fun timewaster, but, of course, one has to be careful not to get too sidetracked (you know … that NEVER happens to me!) And, as you can imagine, browsing the [...]

While working with some delightful clients a while back, I had a chance to interact with their two young daughters, Katy & Sarah. We let their Mom & Dad plow through some paperwork while we colored pictures and talked about playing on the computer. Inspired, I decided to see what I could find that might [...]
