I hate shoes. However, that hasn’t kept me from constantly buying them. I recently cleaned out my closet, and it turns out I have more shoes than my friend with a shoe fetish. Years ago in Amsterdam with friends, all the women went shoe-shopping. I remember thinking, “You’re going to buy shoes in Amsterdam? Are you nuts?” I didn’t go with them. I did what any normal American would do in Amsterdam; I bought something called Pineapple Express and sat at an outdoor cafe, stoned, finally…
Heard on Main Street: The journey of a thousand miles begins with a broken fan belt and a leaky tire. I just spent a few days in our hospital, but I am very pleased to be home. And to enjoy my son and daughter, who came immediately. A friend brought lovely yellow tulips to the hospital. A cool day near that window caused the blooms to avoid standing tall, but to spread out to the side. I assume it was to search for warm sun and avoid the cold window. Now on stretching out at the sides on my table…

“Always remember to forget the things that made you sad. But never forget to remember the things that made you glad.” –Irish proverb St. Patrick’s Day is March 17, the day to celebrate Irish culture. Mo’s will reopen that day to serve us corned beef and cabbage, and you can stop in to the P.A. Club for the craic and some traditional Irish music. Slainte! Did you survive the time change to daylight savings? It is nice to have a longer afternoon and evening, though…
The exact meaning of writer-director Oliver Laxe’s new film, “Sirāt,” playing at the Martha’s Vineyard Film Center, dances just out of reach. Before the opening credits roll, the words we read onscreen leave us pondering about what we are about to see: “The Sirāt bridge connects paradise and hell. Whoever ventures across its path is narrower than a strand of hair and sharper than a sword.” The visuals in the film’s first scene are arresting. We wander through hundreds of dancers moving…

My birthday is in a few days. I try not to get too hung up on age. Complaining about it is like complaining about the weather — can’t do a thing to change it. Yet, one thing I knew I’d never do is talk about age-related foibles with my friends. Until I did. Not long ago, my husband and I were having breakfast in a restaurant and happened to be seated next to a table of “men of a certain age.” I wasn’t trying to eavesdrop, but because three of these gentlemen were shouting so the two wearing…
