I drove through the snow this morning, listening to NPR as usual. I stop at a traffic light and cradle my warm hazelnut latte in my hands, taking a sip of sweet happiness. Maya Angelou is on the Diane Rehm show and is a beautiful, positive spirit. She’s just so full of joy and peace.Read the whole post >>

Snow has been falling like crazy here in Cleveland, something about “lake effect,” I’ve started wearing boots to walk to work, and it was 28 degrees this morning.
