The Case for Cozy
Some of my friends have been talking about strategies for coping with the stress of the coming fall and winter. I would like to propose one in particular: Coziness. Make finding comfort, even if it’s just a few minutes, a deliberate practice. Take time to think about your ultimate cozy place. It’s better than thinking about the news.

Eva’s Almost Enough Stuffing
I’m putting this here for my children because it should definitely not die with me (not that I have any imminent plans). It’s a recipe that no Christmas or Thanksgiving in our family is complete without. In fact, I think most of my family would give up the turkey before the stuffing. Not sure how to cut this down to……

Immigration lottery to be replaced by gladiatorial games
Ending a twenty-seven year history, the popular Immigration Lottery will be shut down. Originally intended to promote cultural diversity by making available 50,000 permanent resident visas annually to natives of countries deemed to have low rates of immigration to the United States, the program has been determined to be a huge……

My two sons are grown and long out on their own. Yesterday the younger one texted me:
“Is there anything you and Dad want for Christmas?”
