I know I am not the only one having travel fantasies. My husband, Peter, and I were not planning to do a lot of traveling in the past year.

Remember faces? We used to be able to see people’s noses, mouths, chins and — sometimes — glorious mustaches. In order to help stop the spread of COVID-19, we wear face coverings in everyday places including grocery stores, schools and post offices. All we can see of each other’s faces is our eyes. That’s where Tyra Banks comes in.

I hope that headline grabbed your attention. As much as I’d love to see a reunion tour of Justin Timberlake and the other guys, the closest thing to an N*SYNC lyric you’re going to get today is in this article.

Ilove reader feedback, especially when it is glowing. Luann wrote in with a great question.

I am not exactly a connoisseur of contemporary culture. I haven’t seen the latest series on Netflix or anything else. I don’t follow Twitter or Snapchat or Instagram. But somehow, a TikTok phenomenon came to my attention that I found too delightful to ignore.

I‘ve always loved librarians. I remember my first school librarian.

I‘m going to lean on my three years of high school Latin to answer this question. I really wanted to make sure I was profiled as a giant nerd during my formative teen years, so I took a class where we got extra credit for wearing a homemade toga to school for an entire day. Let’s just say I got my extra credit.

My husband, Peter, is taking no chances. I knew this about him before I married him.
