Master POA Report
I was playing Mah Jongg earlier this week (a game I learned at the beginning of this year and have really been enjoying), and one of the other players asked me what POA stands for in the newsletter. We use so many abbreviations, particularly in this age of messaging, that it occurred to me that […]

Cook’s Corner – Corn Chowder
As the fall harvest winds down, my northern friends probably have a surplus of vegetables they need to use. Michelle and I just spent the weekend in Northeast Ohio (my former home), and I’m proud to say our favorite crop is coming in beautifully. We are known for Sweet Corn. It’s like candy smothered with […]
