My earliest reading memories are of a tall, skinny cardboard book called “Sally Ann the Cow.” It’s spine was mangled and it came with its own cardboard box. I had that book until very recently, and for reasons too tragic to mention, now I have it no longer. That was… Read More »

So I missed 15 minutes of last weekend’s NFL draft. That means I watched approximately 15 hours and 45 minutes. I love the NFL draft. I think it combines suspense, drama, gratitude, humility, occasional heartbreak, and some honest to God shocking moments with 20-something soon to be millionaires, talented athletes,… Read More »

So I guess you either have the crafting gene or you don’t. My daughter has it. My mother doesn’t as much, although she enjoys sewing and makes her own pillow shams and curtain valances in her straight-from-a-magazine homes. So I guess she crafts. Me, not so much. Since college, I… Read More »

Some might say that Casper already has plenty of places to eat. But Casper’s newest, open now on the far east side (5900 E 2nd St.), checks several boxes and in a promising way. Wyoming Ale Works (WAW) is the latest from John Johnson’s restaurant group, so it has proven local… Read More »

I enjoy movies, I just don’t watch them very often. Through all of the different phases of my life, I’ve loved a giant box of Dots and popcorn with lots of butter and salt. I just very, very rarely go “to the movies.” Now, living 25 miles from a movie theater… Read More »

Welcome to the Wyo Sal Kitchen, where the food is sometimes smokin’ hot. But first, dessert. I flew to the market because I had seen chocolate-covered strawberries advertised. They were obscenely expensive, so I grabbed a medium-ish sized carton of strawberries for $2.99 instead. Preparing my Valentine’s Day feast for… Read More »
