Two For One deals
This confuses me, neighbors. A vague feeling of unease.
Coats being half-off at Fred Meyer’s. ( not at the minute; don’t go rushing out). Two for one deals on food at Safeway (The white cheddar cheese-its are very tasty). Both of these things are “buy one get one free.” However, people either [...]

The Daring Book For Girls
I can’t wait. As the father of two lovely and talented daughters, I was reluctant to buy them the The Dangerous Book for Boys. Not terribly reluctant, mind you; but I did buy my eldest a couple of “girl talk” sorts of books. I just want her to have all the tools [...]

The Golden Compass
… the book. Upon which the movie is based.

String Ornaments
Here’s a lovely idea for a craft project, tomorrow while the rain returns to our fair city.
You’ll need some cotton string or yarn, some white glue, some little cups, some small blown-up balloons or wax paper. It’s messy so you’ll want to have some soap and water handy too. You might want some [...]
