Diversions: All Things Haiti -- Food, Fun, and Charity Walk

Hoooooly mackerel! It's been a bit since I have been able to update the page... but, in that period, we've made a move to the new home, had a Mother's Day AND Dos' Belated Birthday Party, and, most taxing of all, I have been without interwebs until, oh, less than an hour ago.

But, I'm back, so, here's today's offering, courtesy me and the Indianapolis Star. Sounds like a good excuse to get out and try some Haitian food... as if any of us need an excuse to eat!

Grayson Gutzweiler (left), Brownsburg, enjoyed running with the race leaders at the Walk with Haiti run/walk event in 2011 — although just for a few moments, while he and most of the rest of the field were being lapped. Jayson Rigsby (far right), Brownsburg, was the overall winner, while Luke Schepers (center), 14, Brownsburg, followed closely behind. St. Malachy Catholic Church will hold its annual Walk With Haiti event on May 18, 2013, at Williams Park. / Doug McSchooler / For The Star

Dishes: Diesel's Dining in Danville

Looking for a new burger joint? I highly recommend you try out Diesel's in Danville. Hands-down, it is the best cooked burger I have had in years, and the onion rings and fish tacos aren't half bad, either! Check out my and Chris' adventure to Diesel's, courtesy the Indianapolis Star, HERE.

Diversions: Boobs Are Funny. And Painful.

Pardon the title of the piece if you're easily offended, but this is my story... well, not the Mormon part. BUT, the first time I was called a slut was in 4th grade. Super-slut that I was (and all of an A+ cup, at the time, I'm sure), I had to ask my parents what that even meant (though I had a pretty good idea). And, to coincide with her conclusion, yes, the weight gain of pregnancy, thus "balancing me out" has been an unexpected blessing. 

But boob-shame is the worst... which is why ya gotta joke about it. Well, that's why I joke about it, anyway. Deep-rooted self-loathing. Also, boob jokes are funny. Thanks for the truth and understanding, Mama Pop!

Diversions: ArtsGo!

Hey, all you artsy-fartsy types: looking for something to do this weekend that doesn't involve wandering the sterile halls of a museum? Head to the west side of Indianapolis, Hendricks County specifically, for the 8th Annual ArtsGo!, located all over the county. Food and music are also on the bill. Check out my current story for the Indianapolis Star for details on the all-day event.
