It is official–I have worn out every pair of pajamas I own. This is no mean feat as I have oodles of jimmy jams from all of you nice people who sent them to me last year (thanks!). But I don’t have a single pair now that does not have holes, thin spots, fading, stretching, …

I Think I Might Be Cheating On My Tea Company
It is no secret that I am a ginormous tea fan. There are so many wonderful things about tea — it’s good for you, tasty, and sometimes even has caffeine in it, the miracle of modern civilization. There’s something about the whole process too that is just so zen-like and appealing — selecting the tea …

My Life As a Horse Thief, Part II
So I wanted a pony or horse and loved them and couldn’t figure out how I had missed out on Sundae because I’d been too small to appreciate her. I took some riding lessons, but found going around inside a barn while a lady shouted at me and spending an hour cleaning tack and things …
My Life As a Horse Thief, Part I
To understand how I came to be a horse thief, we have to start at the beginning of the story. When I was wee, my father acquired a sleigh. He went to a local pony owner and asked if he could rent the pony to pull the sleigh. The guy said, “No, but I’ll give …

The Other Couple Who Lives at My House

Years 11 & 12 of 16, Our First Two Visits to Portland, plus Vegas!
I’m not sure what happened between 9 & 11, but photographic evidence is not forthcoming. I could put up a picture of me and my co-star sharing a malt and pretending to be in love in the World’s Fastest Librarian and maybe even try to photoshop Barrett in, but it would be a sham. I’m …

Years 6 & 9 of 16, The Woodpile and Painting Re-creation
Year 6: That’s us working! Look at those muscles. My mother said we’d want pictures of us working in the woodpile someday. I thought it was just an excuse to take pictures instead of help us, but lo and behold, we now have evidence of our labors. Year 9: The re-creation of a painting (I’m …

Because You Asked, Years 2 & 4 of 16
For some reason, I can’t find our stash of photos anywhere, but I was able to unearth a few tucked in random places. We did not actually spend those two years entirely in evening wear. Year 2: Year 4: Love to you all, Bridget
