I am fascinated by anauralia (lack of an inner voice), aphantasia (lack of visual imagination), and the general diversity of the inner...

Solid takeaways, but could have been shorter. There’s some interesting stuff in Four Thousand Weeks , around a resonant premise that...

Another double-header. If you enjoy one of these shows you’ll probably like the other. Bodkin (Netflix) and Deadloch (Amazon) are both...

Wait, now it’s August !? And, am I really sensing autumn in the air? Perhaps it’s the ever-darkening mornings, the dryness of the grass...

Happy purchase! I’ve seen these cheerful silicone lids in gift stores for years but never realized what a game-changer they would be. ...

Science! Not woo-woo. I can see why the author of The Expectation Effect was compelled to explicitly distance his book from The Secret...

I know these are low-quality photos. I don’t have the energy to invest in the research (and probably, equipment) to take beautiful moon...

Not an ideal Saturday morning , driving to SFO to locate my carry-on bag which had become a gate-checked bag and then an abandoned bag...

I saved the “For Barb ONLY” sign ; I anticipate many future uses. Chocolate-chip peanut butter cookies were a truly awesome welcome...

It took Elizabeth’s impending move to spur me to action on our long-standing and vague plan. I’m so glad we did it and grateful to...

I’m kind of cheating… I did see the full moon on May 23, from an Uber on the way home from SFO after an exhausting flight from London....

I don’t know which is more effort: Trying to wrap my brain around the scientific premise or giving up and focusing on the characters and...

Clouded over, again… Which kind of matches how I’ve been feeling lately. Am I controlling the weather? #5Stars #MoonQuest

Makes me feel fancy. I like it more than expected; the 9oz version is just the right size. Dispenses hand soap, dish soap or...

These days, COVID is basically Danger Cold: It’s less novel and less severe for most of us – but we still face the treachery of Long...

I feel loved and cared-for. COVID (round 3) sidetracked my Easter weekend plans, but this Coupa Cafe delivery from Leah and Seppi made...
