January 30, 2019 - I am ready for the weekend. Not in a cranky “this week sucked” way, but in a “OMG there are so many events to look forward to” way. Perhaps the splashiest of these hot tickets is Hamilton opening this week at the Ohio Theatre. I scrimped...

February 05, 2019 - Our boys enjoyed a total of three snow/cold days last week, which means we recently finished up a five-day weekend (send booze). We made the most of it, though: we watched movies, read books, keep the fire going. And to our delight, they...

March 20, 2019 - Before interning for the Greater Columbus Arts Council, I tended to scour social media for plans over the weekend. Since then I’ve started checking out what ColumbusMakesArt.com has to offer, and right away a few things caught my eye:...

March 27, 2019 - This week I’m finally feeling back to normal after traveling overseas to Scotland. We didn’t think the jet lag would hit us so hard, since there’s only a four-hour time difference, but my goodness, it’s funny and frightening how it can...

April 03, 2019 - As I sit down to write this, my weather app is telling me that Saturday, April 6, will have a high of 69 degrees and only 10% chance of rain. If that holds we might actually have spring people. Spring in Ohio must not be ignored so...
