Recipe of the Week – Pork Sandwiches

This recipe comes from a friend at work, who is an amazing cook. When she first told me, I looked at her like she was nuts, but tried it and I’m glad I did. This is a easy week-night dinner which takes all of about five minutes prep and another five minutes to get ready [...]

Goal Oriented

In Rememberance

Eight years ago today, I was driving the kids to school when the radio news started broadcasting that a plane had hit the World Trade Center. My first thought was it must be really foggy there, because how in the world could you not see that giant building right in front of you.

Brin marched all the way to David’s apartment. It had taken her over an hour to get there, but she didn’t feel the least bit tired. On the contrary, she felt that the [...]
