Experiences

On the night of my rehearsal dinner, I gathered with my closest friends to take a cute photo together.  One for the photo album, to show off while Keri and I are 110 years old, in our rocking chairs on the porch. But then, the photo became…… “Remember that time …

I travel a lot for work, and when I do, I feel like I have a lot to balance.  Groceries, dry cleaning, cleaning, laundry, social calendar, and of course, time with my husband. One our Guest Bloggers, Art Carden, travels a lot for work too.  But he has more to …

Ballpark food delivered right to your seat?  The future is here. While some hotel chains are moving away from full service, some baseball parks are embracing it.  While watching a National’s game yesterday, I noticed a sign on my seat advertising mobile ordering with Dasdak. I just had to try …
