  She asked me about my glasses. They're heavily tinted reading glasses that block out blue light. They're not cheapy throw-aways, but they're not expensive either.

  In the summer of 2018, I began to plan our annual "getaway" trip for September. From my teen years through my mid-50s, I was a retail animal. When you're leading a retail company, you don't think about taking time off between October and January. September always was the most convenient time to step away. So here I am, mid-summer, planning for September. Big Cedar Lodge, up near Branson, Missouri, had become a bit of a favored ...

  Most of us don’t like to think about it, but one day, one of us will be left behind. And for most couples, that person will be her.

Half of widows over 65 will outlive their husbands by 15 years. Eighty percent of men die married, while 80% of women die single. The death of a spouse can be more ...

  I love Hot Springs Village. A lot! I have ever since September 2018, when I first drove through the gates as an Airbnb guest. But... There are a few things I dislike. Some of them very much. It's not a comprehensive list, and it's not objective. It's my list, and it's 100% subjective based on my preferences and my experiences. My list is numbered, but it's not in order of my dislike (or hatred) except for the first one. Tha...

    Ruthie's Table 4

    For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
