Every year, I organise a team of colleagues to do the Global Challenge, a pedometer-based challenge where you have to get a certain number of steps per day. My team of seven has changed every year, but there are three…
What sort of word is Snickerdoodle, anyway? A silly one, that’s what. And these are silly biscuits. No, actually, they aren’t all that silly. In fact, as biscuits go, they are quite responsible. They are not too sweet, a little…
