    When I was a teenager, my mother and I would have a film night once a week. This is back in the days of Blockbuster and VHS. My mother almost always chose the films, which made sense, because she had much better taste than I did. She alway rented what…

    On a recent day trip to Tomar, we enjoyed lunch at Casa das Ratas. Yes, the house of rats. My mother in law saw the sign as we were wandering about the town. It called her attention for obvious reasons. A busy Sunday in Tomar meant that we had to…

    Where tradition and memories cross cultures amongst cod and anchovies My legendary Italian Nana used to threaten us when we acted like little monsters around her house. She would raise her hand high with her perfectly painted long nails, and wave it around saying, “I’m going to give you a baccalá!!!” I was…

    Today is my soul brother´s birthday and he doesn’t like cheese. I still love him even though he doesn’t like cheese. One time I had a boss who didn’t drink coffee or alcohol. But, I really didn’t like him. I have never understood how one can live without cheese. I…
