There is National Mustard Day, but would you believe that there is no official National Ketchup Day?! I don’t dislike mustard, but ketchup is the king of condiments in my book. So to honor Henry John Heinz’s birthday today, the founder of the H.J. Heinz Company, we here at Who Wants To Know? would like [...]
If there are only moments for me to get ready for the day, the ONE beauty-must-do is making sure I have my “eyes” on. Mascara is a MUST! The teenage years were great when I didn’t have to worry about looking asleep even when I didn’t have mascara on, but those days are long gone. [...]
I was recently given a fantastic opportunity to “test drive” AboutOne — a secure online family management system started in December 2008 by Joanne Lang. This was immediately the kind of place for me to settle into–I am an extremely organized person and I like all of my information filed, sorted and itemized in a [...]

Ever had those days where you had one too many cups of coffee? Or your body is tired but your brain just won’t shut down? Those days happen to me…a lot. I need the caffeine to get me going in the morning and maybe a pick me up in the afternoon hours and by the [...]
My brother is graduating from college this morning. It’s very bittersweet since we are all so proud of him, but it just reminds me how fast time flies! We are 9 years apart, so I have pretty clear memories of the day he was born and of him growing up. I remember thinking that little [...]
It’s Monday morning, and if you are like me, the first thing you reach for is your cup of coffee! I had been loyal to Starbucks for many years, but recently a Dunkin’ Donuts mini-spot in a gas station opened right by my house. Since it’s the only spot on my side of town to [...]
On May 13, 1938, Louis Armstrong and his orchestra recorded the New Orleans jazz classic, “When the Saints Go Marching In.” I would love to teleport myself into that recording studio–I am big jazz fan, and can only imagine the energy and talent all under that one roof. Listen to a little jazz music today!
