At short notice, I rang my cousin to ask if we could take our Bavarian visitors to their farm, which they purchased from my father. They were in Tasmania but, to cut a long story short, they were happy for us to visit and to take...

Lemurs are so very cute, and I always love watching them when I am at a zoo. Some of the fun things they do, just like humans, are gather together in open areas of the forest to sunbathe. Now I know you have seen beaches where...

What's going on the dinner table tonight? Share with us! I'm making salmon cakes. I'm basing the recipe on the one in Julia Turshen's Simply Julia cookbook. I'm not following it exactly because I don't have sour cream and onion...

Well that's a hot take from the supposed billionaire. He says that the DOJ investigations under the Biden administration "harmed" him when in reality he would have 100% been convicted if he went to trial for the January 6 riot...

Mylotter friends, today was a bittersweet day for me. After a long year of wanting to do it, I finally left Goodwill after two-and-a-half years. Like Danielle said to me a year ago, thank you Goodwill. And I will say it now. Thank...
