This sounds a lot easier than it is. I am a person who likes to be in total control of my life. This started from a very young age and I was raised by very strict parents. My whole life was pretty much charted out for me: be a good student, get into a good […]

So finally this week, we were able to shed our winter coats and wear spring clothes. It sure took long enough. Now I am a die-hard New Englander, but even this cold weather threw me. Here is just one sign of spring – pansies. Did you know that the official flower of my hometown is […]
