What animals make the best/worst pets? There are mysteries in life that have stumped humanity for generations. What is the meaning of life? Are we alone in the universe? Where is the remote control? Well, folks, I’ve cracked one of them. The last one. The remote? It’s under […]
The Tagalog word “gigil” has officially made its way into the Oxford English Dictionary’s list of words that are untranslatable in English. And let me just say, I love that this word exists, because it perfectly captures a feeling I know all too well. “Gigil” is that overwhelming […]
What is the last thing you learned? Here we go again, folks. It’s 6:30 a.m., and I’m watching Bloomberg morning news with my coffee in hand, pretending I care about global markets as I squint at the screen. But, as usual, something strikes me, not the stock exchange […]
There’s a daily ritual in my house that I approach with both love and bleary eyes: feeding my trio of dogs. Now, I’m no Michelin-starred chef, but to my furry companions, I may as well be. Each one of them has their own specific culinary preferences, and I, […]

Do you ever see wild animals? I love animals—don’t get me wrong. But when they’re on my turf, eyeing my three dogs like they’re sizing up their next meal, it’s a different story. Lately, my backyard has become a wildlife arena, and my poor pups—especially my ten-pound dachshund—are […]
What part of your routine do you always try to skip if you can? Let’s talk about routines. You know, those pesky little things we all roll our eyes at, but deep down, we know we need. My dogs are experts at routines—they expect their walks at the […]
