Wondering what all of you use to follow your favorite websites and blogs? My favorite is Bloglovin! I think it’s better than Google Reader. It’s got a pretty, clean interface. In fact, it looks a lot like my own! Once…
Money Monday: Sex, Lies, and Balance Sheets
It’s Money Monday and today I want to talk about fiscal betrayal. It’s a known fact that men lie about their height, women lie about their weight, and people lie about their finances. We all do. I do! When a…
Mark Your Calendars: March 31, 2012
Although the weather wasn’t cooperating, the Carneros Vineyard Run is the funnest race I’ve run. 1. It’s in wine country and not in the downtown area, but in the backroads winding through crops of grapes. 2. It’s small. I heard…
