Three fantastic gift ideas

I’ve decided that for many adults, “consumable” gifts are the best. Nothing to clutter up the house or get re-gifted the following year. Give them something that gets used up and has more meaning than the scarf that’s on sale at the mall. Take a look.

Dexter Morgan visits Houston

I’m always looking for fun things to do on a budget, especially the kinds of things you can do with a friend or three. As a new mother, I’m also now on the lookout for things that are appropriate for small children and grandmas.  Ok, I admit, the photo of Dexter does not represent a children’s event — but it does represent a chance to meet Dexter’s creator at a wonderful bookstore that specializes in mysteries. Unfortunately for me, they’re in Houston and I’m in San Diego. I might have to move to Houston (haha just kidding). They have more than a fair share of fun free entertainment. One of these days, I’ve got to at least travel there and check out that great bookstore. It’s called Murder by the Book.  Here are a few more ideas for free entertainment right now in Houston.
