    Summers of Sun Tea

    I spent a lot of time with my grandparents while growing up. My brother and I would walk long distances along the creek that ran behind our grandparent’s house, something we were told countless times not to do, fishing for crawdads and exploring what seemed like new and uncharted territory.

  • Get the most out of your Mac with Quicksilver

    Personally I’ve always found the Application folder a bad way to open up a particular app. For a long time I had a Favorites folder filled with aliases to my favorite apps that I stored in the dock. At any time I could right-click on the folder and quickly access any app that I use…
