…Duh!
As enthusiastic as I am about needing true change in the US Government and believing it will only come from more options in candidates and parties, I know that a third party candidate will not emerge to win on election day. Not in 2012, 2016….or likely even as far out as 2032. Continue reading
Mmm, tacos. Mmm, chili. Tacos and chili? Yes, please! I found this recipe on Pinterest and decided to make it for the viewing party I hosted for the third-party debates. It seemed like it would be a crowd-pleaser and easy to make.
The original recipe said it would serve 6, but I wanted to make a little more, so I added more tomatoes, chicken, onion and sauce…and changed a few other small things to make it my own – as I always do. I can’t help it – I have to tinker! 😉 Continue reading
One of the most important issues in our modern society in the US – student loan debt – is near to my heart and a huge reason for the shift in my overall political views and leanings. We are being (have been) robbed of our future and placed into a corporate/government profit scheme to make money off of our debt and force us into a life of indentured servitude by way of redundant, meaningless work in a cubicle, factory, or service job.
Ah, the presidential debates – people get SO fired up about which side is “right” or “best.”. That was me, four years ago. I’m not going to watch any of them this year. I don’t care which “side” you think you support – they don’t care about you…or any of us. Continue reading

In the social media space, there is a plethora of tools all promising, in one way or another, to deliver value to an organization’s social media iniatives. These tools will do this via analytics and reporting, listening and brand management, scheduling and moderation, and publishing. How do you know what you need and how do you determine what’s right for your business? Continue reading
Ah, Pinterest – the source of my food inspiration. I’ve had such fun trying recipes I’ve found on the site and this one was no exception. The concept is great – make a huge batch of breakfast burritos, wrap in saran wrap, and freeze. When you need a quick breakfast on your way out the door, take one out of the freezer, heat in the microwave for a couple minutes and enjoy. Works for me! Continue reading
I read an article in Adage about the big-brand beer industry losing ground to spirits. I don’t have access to the data, but I think there is a completely different component to this. Big-brand beer is losing ground to small-brand beer. And social media can help. Continue reading
