I had my birthday on Tuesday, and it was a very pleasant day. Leah and I watched some TV together, and then we went shopping with a friend after Hannah woke up. A local thrift store offers birthday discounts, and I was able to get discounts for all 4 of us. My Mom always gives […]

Eating words for breakfast
I have turned my eating upside down…something many Type Os have recommended, but something I never thought I could do.

The announcer said, “I don’t think that’s what those fighting for equality in the 60s had in mind.” When I heard that, I […]
Room for Cream? The Mystery of “Half-&-Half”
What the heck is “Half-&-Half”? Why does the stuff show up on retail shelves? It’s a wholesale product: It makes for coffee-shop convenience. Its existence says: “Where customers desire expensive cream, we pre-dilute it , to expedite consumer-delivery in a fast-serve setting”. It makes good business sense for any self-serve establishment.
