Although Christmas was a few weeks ago and I’m officially back to working my usual full-time schedule (and doing my radio show as normal!)– I feel like the couple of weeks following New Year’s Eve/New Year’s Day are some of the busiest and most-traveled days I experience- especially in these ongoing times of COVID-19. With […]
As I write this, I’m icing my arm and drinking a lot of water and Gatorade- having received my long awaited COVID-19 booster shot yesterday evening after work. So far, much like my last dosage of the regular Pfizer vaccine- I’m doing okay. I’m taking it easy on myself today, staying hydrated while working from […]
Hello everyone- and hello 2022! Happy New Year and Happy (belated) 2nd Birthday to ‘Coffee & Chiffon’- which was first launched on New Year’s Day back in 2020. Simpler times.

These past (almost) couple of weeks have […]
Greetings from Odenton, Maryland! I’ve been staying here and visiting with my dear friend Andrew and he and Kelsey’s children from now through the morning of Christmas Eve (when I’ll be flying home to spend the remainder of the holiday weekend with my mother, brothers, niece, sister-in-law, aunts/uncles/cousins, etc., etc.) Andrew, Haven and Archer moved […]
