Give Them Love
For many, the holidays are a time of rejoicing, of abundance, and of feasting. But it can be the most difficult time of the year for many others. This SNORK is a public service announcement, dedicated to shining a light on a group of people who are often mocked, marginalized, and misunderstood. I am, of […]

Believing is Believing
“Aha! I knew it!” I could hear my daughter’s squeaky little voice coming through her bedroom door. She was maybe about 7-years-old at the time. Emerging triumphantly into the hallway, she began waving something in my face. At first, I thought it was a grain of rice, but her maniacal grin revealed a new gap along her bottom […]

5 Steps To Being The Perfect Houseguest
The holidays are just around the corner, and for many of us, they involve traveling. Will you be bunking at someone’s home? Are you wondering if you need a refresher course on houseguest etiquette? Well, today’s your lucky day! Not only do I travel quite a bit, I’m also an innkeeper of sorts, since my […]

The ALS Ice Bucket Challenge
SNORK is devoted to humor but amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is certainly no laughing matter. ALS (more commonly known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease) is a progressive degeneration of nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. Its effects are devastating and there is no known cure. So, how did such a serious subject wind up here on […]

Fluffy Got A Brazilian
Throughout history, hair has gotten a lot of attention. Entire books have been devoted to the subject, it is the stuff of legends and lore (Lady Godiva or Samson, anyone?) and pretty much every American parent has made a big deal of their child’s first haircut. My own daughter’s first trim was at the hands […]

Three Little Words
In a recent burst of culinary enthusiasm, I decided to unleash my inner Latina by whipping up a Mexican fiesta, complete with fresh guacamole, salsa, fish tacos, refried beans and a sweet, slippery flan. (Ancestral Disclaimer: I possess not a drop of Hispanic blood, but I believe there is a sexy Chicana residing deep within […]

Dirty Green
Eco-friendly living can’t be fluffed off as a passing fancy anymore. These days, it is considered a full-on lifestyle. There are, however, different levels of commitment to green living. From my experience, there seem to be three categories that most people fall into. Since it’s Earth Day, let’s have a look, shall we? Light Green: Light […]

A Perfect Pairing
Recently, my husband and I celebrated out 22nd wedding anniversary. When people learn we’ve been married that long, they carry on with like we’ve just discovered the cure for psoriasis or something. But to us, 22 years doesn’t seem like a big deal. In fact, by our families’ standards, we are rookies. Hubby’s paternal grandparents (who […]

Light and Breezy
Even though the room was spacious, the four of us were huddled near the far wall. I was literally backed into a corner. From there, it was tough to get the shots I needed; and if I missed them, I would not get a second opportunity. Of all the photography jobs I’d ever had, this […]

Springing Out Of Hibernation
With the exception of a few small grimy piles of snow, winter has finally loosened its death grip on Westchester County. As if Mother Nature were preening for the Spring Equinox, she took a shower last night that lasted long enough to wash away the filthy gray film of rock salt left lingering on our […]
