I finally got the chance to watch this, and I was very impressed. This has to be the cutest robot movie I’ve ever seen, and it is one of the best movies for kids that I’ve seen in a long time. Rated G - now how often do you see that anymore? Truly funny, not [...]

You don’t need three cars. You probably don’t even need two cars. And you could likely get by with no car at all, especially in the city. If you live in a larger city, you probably have a bus available. Buses are cheaper than driving cars. Not just gas, but license, [...]

This is one of those rare perfect books that I will want to keep forever to loan out to friends in need of enlightenment or encouragement. It has everything: a good storyline; characters that are real, complex and that you would want to meet in real life; it’s funny; it talks about the Northwest US [...]

This is a neat little book that I read almost in one day. I found a lot of myself in it. Some of you may think that this statement is odd. After all, it’s about a British girl growing up in a small town under a severely religious, perhaps deranged family, to find out that [...]

She was Dutch but lived in South America for most of her childhood and adolescence. Then she moved to America. She was married to a middle eastern man [...]

Ok, this is a post for girls. Guys, you may want to skip this one, although it is interesting.
Girls (women) you are familiar with the choices out there for your monthly period. Tampons, and pads, right? Tampons can be uncomfortable, and can give you toxic shock syndrome. Pads can be bulky, may leak, are big [...]

I loved this little book (just 152 pages, I read it in a few hours). It was not only a delight to read, but also aesthetically pleasing and nice to hold in my hands.
It is an autobiography, but also a spiritual book. Although Sue does not claim to have “found God”, she did discover a [...]
