Food

Where Dumplings and Ducks Rule

Some of the best dishes at Wu’s Wonton King on the Lower East Side are the simplest, along with the whole suckling pig.

Such places exist.
I have not visited as yet.

Pakistan, Let’s Talk About Sex

The country’s population is exploding because the state is too coy about family planning.

Pakistan is military and Islamic.
A nation of male soldiers in which homosexuality carries a death penalty. 
Rape is part of the loot.

Love is.

Half the children are daughters.

Victoria reigns.

Should I Track Down the Girl I Bullied in Middle School?

And: offering to help a stepdaughter freeze her eggs, a hostess balks at accepting a gift, and a housekeeper helps herself to the makeup stash.

Frozen eggs are a tender subject.
Proceed with extreme caution.

So, a President Walks Up to a Microphone...

Yes, of course,Trump was “only joking.” At least sometimes, we have to hope so.

The President must not "joke" in public.

Some of the best dishes at this restaurant, where Chinatown meets the Lower East Side, are the simplest, along with the whole suckling pig.

The food is not kosher.

Hervé Pierre: From the White House to His House

The first lady’s stylist and designer invites us inside his apartment and work space.

I did not study clothing design or dress making.

These gowns did not go to the shows.

Designers live in chaos.

That chaos lives in the Studio.
I want to walk away from it when it is time to start dinner.

Patient Voices: Alzheimer’s Disease

A slow decline in memory, an inability to complete simple tasks, the concern about long-term care - five men and women speak about living with and caring for someone with Alzheimer's disease.

Exhaustion fogs my short term memory.
