Mardi Gras is a period of revelry that takes place on the Tuesday prior to the start of the Christian season of Lent. Mardi Gras, French for “Fat Tuesday,” is celebrated in various regions of the world, but perhaps nowhere are celebrations as festive as in New Orleans, where the French-Creole culture mingles with the parades, brass bands, tossed beads, and all around good fun and great food. 02/27/2022 05:00 AM

Exploring Nature: Contest Winner
We have a winner! Suzanne H. Leighton, of San Marcos, has submitted the winning poem in my poetry contest. As you may recall, the only requisites were the poem should be reasonably short, about birds and/or nature and should rhyme. I had a hard time choosing a winner from all the excellent submissions. 02/27/2022 05:00 AM

The awards keep coming for Supertunia Mini Vista Petunias
The awards keep coming for Supertunia Mini Vista Petunias
The awards just keep coming. When I last wrote about the Supertunia Mini Vista Indigo, it was in 2020 and it was making its debut. It had already won 24 awards in trials, even though it was just arriving to the public. Now the awards are three dozen and, in fact, the Supertunia Mini Vista series now totals over 160. How can this be for a petunia with the word mini in its name? 02/20/2022 05:00 AM
‘Tootsie’ to open Tuesday at Bass Concert Hall
‘Tootsie’ to open Tuesday at Bass Concert Hall
When people think of the movie “Tootsie,” they recall an uncomfortable Dustin Hoffman in a spangly red sequin dress. The movie, which appeared in theaters in 1982, was built around counterpoints: social commentary with farce, seriousness with absurdity, while at the same time making some important observations about sexism. 02/20/2022 05:00 AM
