The Jabberwocks and ‘Run to You’

November 20, 2016November 20, 2016 Jo Tango

Our son and his a cappella group just released a video, a cover of Pentatonix’s “Run to You.” It’s up top, or click here. It’s a very soulful song, particularly at around minute 3:00. It is a song about love. Given that the Pentatonix pray before going on-stage, I wonder if there also is a

Saturday Night Indie Music

November 12, 2016May 1, 2024 Jo Tango

Mrs. T. and I tonight are cooking dinner. We last night had dinner out with friends, which was very fun. But, tonight, we are ditching a big-crowd cocktail party. We wanted to stay at home and just chill. So, I’m making some Mapo Ragù. It is very easy and delicious. If you like Korean food, this

Pentatonix

‘Mirrors’

September 24, 2016September 24, 2016 Jo Tango

I’m a parent. I’m not a perfect one, but I do try and remember to take it seriously. I know that you likely are becoming numb to this election cycle. But, I think the video below is very important, not because of a political message, but because of a parenting message.

Fried Rice

September 5, 2016September 5, 2016 Jo Tango

I’m the household manager this week. Mrs. T. is out of town. It will be a quiet dinner tonight. Our oldest just went to college. Our other teens are out with a friend. So, it’s just our youngest child and I at home for dinner. Frankly, it is weird to have the house so quiet.
