Coping with the winter months

Ask anyone who knows me and they’ll tell you I live for December 21st.  Not because it is ‘the most wonderful time of the year’.  It’s because it is the winter solstice.  What this means is from here until June 21st we will get a minute more of daylight in the morning and a minute more each night.  The next...[ read more ]

Humankind. Be both.

One of my favorite restaurants in my home town of Austin, Texas is El Arroyo.  In addition to serving some great Tex-Mex dishes, they are known for this funny little billboard which often includes expressions and jokes which we can all relate to.  This week’s sign read “Human Kind.  Be Both”.  What a great statement, especially now.
