Dear Reader, Would you ever consider vacationing in Detroit? For me, the answer isn’t “no,” exactly, it’s more like… “perhaps…”. Now that I am in Detroit, I see that like any major American city, there is a lot to do here! When determining your Detroit getaway, here are some things to consider: Detroit River Price....

Dear Reader, How many times online have you seen people advertise “the best” or “the perfect” recipe? These labels have become so ubiquitous that often I find myself looking at recipe ratings (out of 5 stars) and ignoring the titles altogether when searching for a good recipe. When looking for a sangria recipe, I found... Continue Reading →
Dear Reader, Short, spontaneous trips can be great to revitalize one’s spirits. In my continued work-from-home situation, I am finding it increasingly difficult to focus my attention on my computer screen. While I used to work for over an hour straight without distractions, now, anything longer than 15 minutes feels like a mental burden (yikes!).... Continue Reading →
Dear Reader, How much beer can you drink in ten minutes? That question right there was pretty much the theme of the Harpoon Brewery tour and tasting. In my alcohol-production-facility tour and tasting experiences, I have come to find that these attractions come in all shapes and sizes. When I went on whiskey distillery tours... Continue Reading →
Dear Reader Would you read a book even if you have already seen the movie adaptation?

Dear Reader, Being in the background has its benefits. I am a fan of the side hustle and just this summer, I have made quite a bit of chump change participating in market research and psychological experiments — (more than $20 an hour for easy "work"). However, my most interesting side hustle thus far has... Continue Reading →
Dear Reader, Do you ever get so excited that you simply can’t get your mind to sit still? As an easily amused person, I feel this way, perhaps, more than normal. But, today, I have more of a legit reason to be excited… I’m going to be in a motion picture! Well, it’s one small... Continue Reading →
Dear Reader, Making healthy recipes can be more complicated than it sounds. For one, often such recipes require a handful of ingredients you may not have on hand, like arrowhead root, spelt, agave, or coconut sugar. Additionally, at times these recipes substitute natural ingredients, like cane sugar, for more questionable options like stevia, erythritol, or... Continue Reading →
Dear Reader, How much does someone’s favorite book say about that person? In the thriller series “You,” by Caroline Kepnes, the heartthrob-serial-killer protagonist, Joe, is surprised to learn that his chipper, middle-aged employee, Ethan, claims “American Psycho” to be his favorite book. Have you read “American Psycho” by Bret Easton Ellis? Maybe, you’ve seen the... Continue Reading →
