THE ART & SPORT OF BARGAIN HUNTING

I have acquired a lot of sweaters over the years. This is New England. Winters are long. Heat is expensive. Sweaters fill the gap.

PURPLE AND THE PASSIONATE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS

Seriously purple? Let me start off by saying that I do not feel purple. Not even violet or lavender. Mind you, no particular prejudice involved. I have no issues with purple. It is one of my favorites. But writing about it? As a subject? Purple, the color of bruises? The color under your eyes when … Continue reading PURPLE AND THE PASSIONATE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS

ROYAL PURPLE
