Here in the northeast, it’s supposed to be pretty snowy this weekend, and with no plans for us set in stone, we’re likely to be hunkering down inside as much as possible, watching the birds at the feeder in the backyard and likely a ton of PBS Kids programming. Maybe I’ll even make some popcorn.Continue reading “We did the mash…the folded monster mash”

A check and a smile
Made a stop at the post office this week and I’m hoping the bank and the water company appreciate the friendly face along with their check.
A super party for our super hero
We recently had a birthday party for our little guy. It was the first time we ever actually had it at our house. Usually we relied on the kindness of grandparents on both sides to get us through over the years, as our house had long been too small to have anyone over beyond aContinue reading “A super party for our super hero”
The No Cavity Club
Meg took our son to the dentist this past week and naturally, on my end, there was all sort of anxiety. Even though his last visit went splendidly, I’m still haunted by the very first visit we took when the dentist found several cavities that had to be taken care of. However, since that firstContinue reading “The No Cavity Club”
Riding the nostalgia train to Duckburg
I’m not really a video game guy. Sure, I played some Nintendo when I was in elementary school, but it was always at a friend’s house.

When is a door not a door?

He’s going to strike at the jarred fruit exhibit at the Gotham Pavilion!” “I don’t think so, Robin. That’s too obvious. No,Continue reading “When is a door not a door?”
Happy Birthday, Dr. Seuss
“Today you are you. That is truer than true. There is no one alive more youer than you.” That comes from Happy Birthday To You, one of the myriad of books in the catalog of Dr. Seuss masterpieces that decorate many a bookshelf and have influenced any number of childhood, and foster a creativity acrossContinue reading “Happy Birthday, Dr. Seuss”
Agents of Change
Some time back I publicly gushed about what I normally gush about to any parent who will listen – my love of the PBS Kids series Odd Squad. For those uninitiated, Odd Squad is an organization run by kids that investigate anything odd. Be it people who drink lemonade that turns their head to lemons,Continue reading “Agents of Change”
