The story of pie

October 7, 2015

Just a simple post this week. I am off to a marketing conference for the rest of the week and didn’t have a chance to prepare anything deeper. Here is a picture of some pies I baked over the weekend. Or rather, I baked them while my Mom supervised. Ever since we had the stove […]

Do-si-do and away we go!

September 30, 2015

Here we are ready to embark on our square dancing adventure: Oh dear, I see we have turned into one of those couples that dresses alike and looks alike. 🙂 We arrive at the hall and Mr. Ken goes straight towards the refreshments to check them out. He comes back with a big smile on […]

Thoughts on the end of summer

September 23, 2015

I’m torn about summer coming to an end. On one hand, I will miss all the hours of daylight. I love getting up early – can we say 4 am?. By the time I’m done with my healthy breakfast at 5 am, it’s already getting light outside. On the other hand, this has been a […]

Information overload

September 16, 2015

We are bombarded with information, images and stuff. Just one email from a content marketing firm has about 20 article links. I find myself so overwhelmed that I no longer even open the email. I just hit delete. I can’t even be bothered to open the email, scroll down through all the stuff and hit […]

Yee haw!

September 9, 2015

Before I begin this week’s post, I’d like to start with a little story. Way back in the days of high school, I didn’t like gym. Hard to believe that an exercise fanatic like me didn’t like gym, but there you are. I think it was because: 1. The dorky gym uniforms. Can someone say […]

Annoying marketing

September 2, 2015

I am so fortunate to live in Boston, where the tech and marketing community is so vibrant. There are just so many wonderful networking and learning opportunities here. One organization that has created some great events is MITX, the Massachusetts Innovation and Technology Exchange. Unfortunately, some recent events have made me change my opinion of […]

Mr. Ken’s healthy eating adventure

August 26, 2015

Mr. Ken spent last week visiting his mother in South Carolina. Can we say grits anyone? Grits on their own wouldn’t be so bad; they’d probably be bland. But southern style grits call for the butter! He would call me every night to tell me about his day. Here’s an excerpt from one of our […]

Hangin’ out with Google

August 19, 2015

Do you hang out? I don’t think I ever just hung out, even when I was a teenager. Unless you count quietly reading a book all afternoon. I could never see the point of just sitting and doing nothing, even if I was in the company of good friends. Google, which will soon take over […]

Healthy eating or not?

August 12, 2015

Yet(!) another story from the life of Mr. Ken. Mr. Ken just got back from his daily walk. He yells up the stairs. On an aside here, what is it about spouses that feel compelled to carry on a long conversation when you are not in the same room with them, yet when you are […]

The things we do for love

August 5, 2015

This past Saturday, I was very busy up in my office. I was on my computer doing very important stuff. Well actually, I was perusing YouTube and looking for more Jessica Smith videos that included her adorable French bull dog, Peanut. Mr. Ken, yells up the stairs, “I need you to come outside quickly.” I […]
