Listen To Your Mother: hold it up to the light
[all images courtesy of Jacob Slaton Photography] It’s been 2 weeks, and I’m still grinning every time I think about Mother’s Day. Because, you see, I believe in the power of stories. I love it when we can slow … Continue reading
the scary is often the right
Listen To Your Mother: Little Rock is now open for submissions – which got me thinking about how I got involved with this whole thing. I’m also counting this journey as one of my #48walks. Around this time last year … Continue reading
Clybourne Park at The Rep
The Arkansas Repertory Theater was kind enough to provide me with tickets to Clybourne Park at The Rep so that I could write about my experience. Opinions and applause are all mine. How do I tell you about the current play at … Continue reading
Red at The Rep
The Arkansas Repertory Theater was kind enough to provide me with tickets to Red so that I could write about my experience. Opinions and applause are all mine. You know how sometimes you’re at a party, or dinner, or even … Continue reading
little rock life: hot air balloon festival

These are not beautiful pictures. They are not well-lit. The group of people isn’t arranged the way I would like them to be, in front of a large green and black marquee for the play we’re about to see. In … Continue reading

Friday before last, I got to tour the new (fancy!) Kroger Marketplace out on Chenal Parkway. (Full disclosure: I was invited by a Kroger PR person, I had a great time and was plied with wonderful samples of food, including … Continue reading
