Making my first (and, seeing that we just voted to sell it, probably also last) visit to THE Episcopal Church Center.
Back in NYC this week for the first time in 7 years, and I am happy to see that she is as delightful as ever.
Direct flights to Montreal from Indy??? I can't wait for the sugar cream pie / tart au sucre cultural exchange to begin

I fear Canada has forgotten its greatest bargaining chip in the trade war with the US: Heated Rivalry season 2
I tried to come up with a witty remark to put with my 9 albums, but I failed. This is who I am and I can be no other.
I insist that someone give the Bake Off baker who went home this week their own show, because I would watch them do ANYTHING.
Making the bakers bake a chocolate Guinness cake FOR NIGELLA is diabolical behavior on the part of the Bake Off producers.
I'm helping to lead my parish's first Bible study in some years using the @forwardmovement.org "Exploring the Bible" series, and it has been such a delight getting to meet with my fellow parishioners and talk about the Bible in an environment that is open to inquiry and exploration.
As we enter autumn, let this serve as your seasonal reminder that in addition to their usual cheeseburger and custard fare, Culver’s also serves a pretty good pot roast and mashed potatoes which performs adequately if you are a single person who cannot justify making an entire pot roast for oneself
Indiana’s entry to the Sample family, Mark Allen, is the meathead member of the family who peaked in high school.

A fun part of being part of a church finance committee is that our accounting software still has accounts set up for “pagers” and “yellow pages advertising”
I’m watching a 2011 Apple keynote (don’t judge me), and it seems so quaint the things we were amazed by when the iPad 2 came out. They spent SO much time talking about multi-touch on the display.
“I stopped going to the gym because the gym got condemned for structural issues” sounds like either an excuse or a metaphor, but is, in fact, my actual life this week
We're being told that if we sacrifice the rights of some people, then the rest of us get to keep our rights. We all know that's some BS.
I always forget how bleak losing your sense of smell during a cold makes the world.
The fact that Tom Cruise and Alan Ritchson have both played Jack Reacher… they truly could not have cast two more different people.
I understand from a caloric perspective why a serving of ravioli is four, but from an even deeper, spiritual level, I do not.
pay living wages for all workers. tax the shit out of billionaires. happy labor day.
I saw this on the West End before it transferred to Broadway—it’s a delightful show!
