As a single parent raising teens, I love quick and easy dinner recipes.
My kids and I like fresh asparagus, and we eat a ton of pasta to fuel our sports (cycling and running for me, soccer and track for my daughter, lacrosse and wrestling for my son.)
So when I discovered an asparagus pasta recipe in [...]
My teen daughter and I watched the Julie & Julia movie on DVD the other night, and since it’s about blogging and writing and cooking and getting published, I figured I’d weigh in with my movie review. After all, I’m a single parent blogger, a writer trying to get published, a single dad who likes [...]

Still, [...]

Fast food, processed snacks. I have no idea how they do so well in their athletic events. I mean, some of these kids set records at local and state meets – fueled by fast [...]
My flirt-a-day challenge is going gang-busters, which is great – if my only goal is to flirt. Which it’s not. I’m hoping to turn some innocent flirting into a hot date. For that, I need to meet single women at my same life stage. Or at least single women close enough to my age that [...]
