Is your real estate agent honest?

‘Love, Loss, and What I Wore’: A trip though life and wardrobe
Sisters Nora and Delia Ephron took the book “Love, Loss, and What I Wore” by Ilene Bacmerman, added stories of friends and their own experiences and came up with a delightful production that hits home with most women and can tickle the funny bone of the guys in the audience.

Do know that the new taco place at 10th and Monterey is a colorful and welcome sight as far as I’m concerned.

Paint it bright orange and put a pink bow on it as long as the paint’s fresh, the property is clean and the lights are on. As soon as it opens, I’m going for lunch.
