Fab 5 Novels: Seeds of War & Revolution
There was a time when it seemed that all I was reading was war-related novels, more typically World War II. I suppose that’s because my dad was a WWII Army veteran, who served in the South Pacific (1941-1945). Like most WWI vets, he never spoke about the war except to share stories about koala ...

Leadership: What it’s Really Like to Fire Someone
I wish someone would write a book about what it’s really like to fire someone. It doesn't matter whether it's the jerk that doesn’t bother to show up for her shift at least twice a week, or the idiot that made a mistake that cost you thousands of dollars, or creep who can’t seem to understand why he ...

Leadership: Do I Really Need a Mentor?
Short answer….YES! As much as I hate to say this, I’ve been in the professional world for ~gasp~ almost 35 years. I’ve seen a lot of “flavor of the day” programs.

In fact, I wake up at the same time everyday…every stinkin’ day…whether I want to or not. It doesn’t even matter what ... Read More about Getting Older: Strategies for a Great Night’s Sleep
The Pie That Made us Giggle
“Grandma T” had a recipe we all giggled at as children, Naked Apple Pie. I’m not sure what we thought it would be, but when we were kids the word “naked” seems to always set of fits of giggles. Yes, this is a pie, sort of. Yes, it’s naked – it wears no cloak of secrecy, no sense of “I wonder what ... Read More about The Pie That Made us Giggle
Diane’s Doorstop Chocolate Cake
I love cake....no, that's not right. I LOVE CHOCOLATE CAKE! There's little better in the dessert world for me than a delicious, moist chocolate cake. I love how the batter smells; I love the smell of it baking. Frosted? Yeah, that's great. But a plain old piece of chocolate cake really, well, takes ...

You’ve Got a Reputation, Cookie!
Growing up, we always knew Christmas was coming when mom started her baking. She usually made just a couple types of cookies - candies were another matter (more on that another time) – but our family favorite was Aunt Catherine’s Rollout Cookies. It was so special, she only made them at ... Read More about You’ve Got a Reputation, Cookie!

Holy CATS that’s hot…well, I’m not sure I used the word “cats”, but you get the picture. My entire family is a bunch of recipe explorers – we all love to try new recipes.
