"You know I only sing in the background." We were on our way to karaoke, after a long evening of trying to wrestle a too-big armoire through the too-small door of the studio, and I thought as she said it that those were the truest...
She is funny and sharp-tongued and caring and completely without a filter and damn, is she sexy. She has survived bad marriages and risen to the challenge of her children's intense special needs and two years ago she made this decision: “I’m going have a year filled...
This whole "eating well" thing has gone too far. I appreciate the science and studies and proliferation of knowledge that are helping us create new, healthier lifestyles after a generation or two of chemistry projects thinly disguised as convenience foods. I myself climb tirelessly (I'm lying,...
This is who they are: Rebecca- Quietly powerful, a reader and thinker, a writer and dreamer. Sweet with an edge of awesome. Jason- A geek and a poet, a techie and a romantic. An honest, trustworthy, genuinely good man. We trekked all over Fort Edmonton Park for these...
