David's Cookies Tin

Sending someone flowers is always a nice gesture. But come one, who are you kidding? Everybody, and I mean everybody, loves a good cookie. You can’t eat a flower. Okay, well you can but it won’t taste all that good. A cookie on the other hand… So when I had the chance to host a [...]

I can’t imagine living today without a smart phone, let alone a regular ol’ cell phone.I still remember when my wife and I got our first cell phone. We actually shared a number at first, if I remember correctly. It was really only for super emergencies, after her parents had trouble getting a hold of [...]

Window Shopping for Gorgeous Necklaces at Fragments.com

Dragonfly Necklace

When it comes to jewelry, my wife is pretty particular. Though, I have to imagine most women are. In general, though, Allie doesn’t wear earrings much (she used to and will on special occasions, she loathes bracelets, but she absolutely adores necklaces.

Blog Spotlight: Meet Drew from BenSpark.com

Drew from Ben Spark

I have never met Drew Bennett in person. We had a few opportunities at various conferences but never could quite get the timing down. I have a feeling we’d hit it off pretty well. We not only share the same first name, but so do our wives. (No, our wives are not called Andrew. They’re [...]

  I’ve been around the Web for as long as it’s been in existence. No, it’s true. I remember the days pre-World Wide Web, where everything was super clunky and just text based.
