The moment I started writing this piece, I started kicking myself – I forgot to pick up milk. It’s not like I really had much of an excuse, either; today I spent several hours at Costco, and returned with several hundred dollars worth of groceries. I bought literally everything I [...]

During my travels to Ireland last month, Mrs. TheCoolist asked me to find her a gift that was uniquely Irish, something that couldn’t be found elsewhere that would resonate with her. I didn’t expect to return home with placemats, but I never imagined I’d discover a set of placemats and [...]
