Given all of the divisions in the world, this is a type of news content I like to see!

 Happy Easter to those who celebrate. I successfully roasted a whole turkey breast and made apple pie.

Here's an interesting article on female characters from a historical perspective.

I missed my calling as a chef at an all-night diner.

Nobel week is one of my favorite weeks. Every day is a celebration of a new set of achievements!
