I had dinner with my dear friend Ruth Ann tonight at the HoDo. As usual, the nourishment was more for the soul than the body. I have to say I relish that time with her. There is nothing quite like a friend that loves you just as you are - however imperfect or flawed. And [...]

The secret of my wealth…
Last night I had dinner with my dear friend Ruth Ann. We ate at the Grand Buffet (a Chinese food fest extraordinaire) - it was yummy to be sure - but even better than the food was the company. Spending time with Ruth Ann is food for my soul. I love that woman...she is so [...]
