Jason is a near and dear friend. He was the best man in our wedding. We love him. He is also a constant source of techy-jealousy in our house. When he got an iPhone before Shaun, Shaun was inconsolable for days. Seriously. This time, a little ol’ e-reader that is the device prompting envy. I [...]

Now my little creative juices are [...]
