Book Contract!

Yesterday we had a momentous evening! Paul signed the contract for his book, working titled "The Boss Life" which will be published by Blue Rider Press (an imprint of Penguin Books) in Fall 2015. I'm so proud of him!

Sunny n Paul!

Our young cat, Sunny, loves his "Daddy." People accuse me of being overly bonded with this animal but really Paul is the alpha cat (if such a thing exists?) When Paul walks in the door after work Sunny comes a-running, and then hangs around hoping for interaction. He is definitely a teenage boy cat and wants to wrestle, play catch, drink beer and watch football, just like the big guys.  His teenage brother is pretty much next in line of devotion, and he loves me too I suppose, I do get lots of sweet kisses, but still....

This morning...a rumbling armful.

Last week...that looks good!

Recently...who needs a blanket?

The Dead Sea Scrolls Live!

I was delighted to be invited recently to attend the opening of the Dead Sea Scrolls exhibition at the Franklin Institute! It was a rare treat to see a show early and Paul and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Many thanks to my friend artist Daniela Rosenhouse for setting this up (turns out her sister-in-law is the chief curator of the scrolls!)

As you can tell from this silly shot of us in the famous FI rotunda Paul and I were in a lighthearted mood. The food and drink were delicious and lavish, the mood was festive and we even ran into people we knew! More importantly, the exhibition itself is really great, a fascinating topic and beautifully presented. Congratulations to curator Pnina Shor for her important and wonderful work!
