Today is the last day of Black History Month. There have been the usual facts revealed on PSA type commercials on TV and PBS had aired several programs that focus on the African-American experience. However the news media, both entertainment and serious, have been lacking in special little pieces that honor achievement this month. If my Mother hadn’t said something, I probably wouldn’t have noticed.

I hear a lot of people often making cracks about “The Vagina Monologues.”  This is probably just due to lack of awareness of why it is performed so much. Sure, from an outsider’s perspective, the show is over-exposed and overdone. What most people don’t know is that it is done worldwide this time of year as a part of  V-Day– a global movement to stop violence against women and girls.

It’s time for the Oscars. Hollywood’s biggest night. The glitz. The glamour. The Bruce Vilanch patter. I’m going to give you the lowdown on who wins what, who looks good and who forgets to thank the spouse/significant other they’re going to break-up with after the ceremony.

Recently, while doing a stand up set at the always hilarious “Drink at Work” show, I had the rare opportunity to see producer/writer Carol Hartsell perform. Reading a laugh-a minute, well-constructed piece entitled “Dear Every Woman in the Bar Other Than Me” she not only killed, but struck a chord deep inside my novice single-person’s heart.

Do you like to stare in people’s windows? Or peer into other’s medicine cabinets? Do you bristle when someone confuses the classy and French word “voyeur” with the creepy and oft illegal “stalker? Then you’ll enjoy this monthly ditty called, What’s In Your Fridge? I’ve asked food bloggers, comediennes and other notable ladies about the contents in their refrigerators. Because there are some things you just can’t gauge with high-powdered binoculars.
