Where are you from?
There’s a funny video floating around on social media that’s getting a lot of attention. It shows a young woman of Asian descent preparing for a jog. A white man starts a conversation with her with the dreaded, “Where are you from?” For a lot of people, this is an innocuous enough question. If you say, “Maine,” or “California,” or “Florida,” that’s usually the end of the conversation. But if you look like I do, the series of questions won’t stop until your lineage is traced back to ancient fill-in-the-blank.
Tiny bubbles
I was looking through some old photos, and I found this picture. My husband was testing a waterproof camera and got this shot of our son (then two-years old) playing in one of the pools at the Kalahari Waterpark in the Wisconsin Dells. I ending up writing about the trip for the New York Post. This photo didn’t make it in. So, here it is.
Sheldon and Jae play bongos
In honor of tonight’s season finale of “The Big Bang Theory,” I thought I’d have a bongo-off with Sheldon Cooper. Who’s the winner? You be the judge.
Happy Mother’s Day!
I’m a sucker for hand prints. Foot prints, too. This year for Mother’s Day, Kyle made me a gift designed around his hand prints at preschool.
My mother’s shoes
Every year, I go to the Coach store and buy my mother a scarf, or a handbag, or a wallet, or a hat, or a pair of shoes — things she likes, but would never buy for herself. She tells me often that the only nice clothes she owns are the ones I bought for her. This isn’t entirely true. My siblings have given her some lovely things or gifted her with money to buy whatever she wants. But it is true that the two of us have gone shopping together the most.

A summer’s day
This is where I plan on spending most of the summer. Sitting on my front porch. Watching the kid ride his bike and drinking my LaCroix.
May the 4th be with you
May the 4th be with you. 🙂 Just bought the kid “Star Wars” lightsaber shoes (at 25% off!) that switch from red to green flashing lightsabers. They’re pretty awesome and he loves them.
