July has come and vanished before my eyes as if it were a firefly. It’s my birthday month and now I am officially another year older. (Hopefully a little wiser. ) Birthdays are one of those days you can’t wait for to arrive when you are a child, get a little anxious when it gets…

This year I’m celebrating friendships and today is one of those special days for it is the Birthday of my lovely friend Dao. Yes, we love her and we’ve known each other since the days when flourescent Body Shop T-shirts were in fashion together with the the L.A. Gear shoes. Those were “must haves.” Those…
