As someone who once wrote email marketing newsletters for a living, I like to think I am immune to sales pitches. I clearly am not. When Cameron Hughes told me that his new Lot 228 Muscato d’Asti was the ultimate summer wine, something resonated with me. I promptly ordered 3 bottles. And then drank two…

Everyone Should Try Miracle Noodles
You guys might not know this, but I used to be a noodle fanatic. Growing up, I would eat whole wheat noodles for breakfast and dinner with parmesan cheese, nothing else. Needless to say, in my paleo or at the least gluten-free life, I’ve tried a lot of noodle substitutes. I love spaghetti squash noodles. I…

Turns out she owns the cookie company I’ve heard great things about but never really understood: Alexandra’s Cookie Dreams. The confusing part is…
Hamilton Shirts at Johnstone Made to Order
I often get told I act like a man … “a boy born with different parts,” and the like. Today, however, I was happy to be acting like a man when I went to get fitted for a Hamilton shirt. The Houston-based company custom-fits and manufactures dress shirts for men. And me. I stopped over…
