HOLLY HENRY
Holly Henry: There’s more in your newspaper than meets the eye 
Newspapers, much like airlines, banks and automobile manufacturers are businesses.

Holly Henry: Put your big girl shoes on and be a buffalo
The first time I heard the phrase “Put your big girl shoes on” was from a Catholic sister at a hospital.

Holly Henry: Honk if you’re feeling impatient
Maybe it’s just me, but I am noticing that people aren’t as nice as they used to be.

Holly Henry: Family lives on through food
When I was a child my mother made bread in a large steel bowl. It wasn’t just any bread, it was real bread – the kind that has yeast and gets kneaded down several times, rising back up to a bountiful doughy cloud above the top of the bowl.

Holly Henry: Welcome kayakers!
So I went kayaking the other day.
This is something I never wanted to do. Kayaks require water, and other than taking a warm bath or splashing in a hot tub, I prefer not be in the liquid.

Holly Henry: Hells Angels or quilters?
I am suspicious by nature. Perhaps this is why I became a journalist; I want to know the details. Anything vague or obscure leaves me feeling, well, suspicious.

I was getting my hair cut the other day. The 20-year-old hairdresser was chattering away, telling me a story about her friend on Facebook.

Holly Henry: Domestic deafness better left untreated
My dad got a hearing aid the other day.
And, while most of us in the family have been trying to convince him for years that this would be a good idea, we’re not entirely sure it was.

Holly Henry: “Paper or plastic?” leads to lifetime of questions
I just want life to be simple.
Remember when you used to go to the gas station and you pulled the handle up on the pump and you put the thingy in the gas tank and pumped? Voila!

Holly Henry: Mattie and Me
So I watched Marley and me the other night – a really good movie about a very bad dog.

Holly Henry: It’s not my fault - but I’m sorry anyway
The gas station clerk was madly swiping my credit card, attempting to get it to register. “I’m sorry,” I said, when it became abundantly obvious that it was not going to work.
