It’s no secret that I love Broadway. I love our blog, theater group. I love every show and the energy coming from the stage. I think this is because my parents really don’t love Broadway, even to this day. So we only went a couple of times, altogether. I BEGGGGGED to see Cats because I learned Memory on the piano and played it on repeat from 1982-1987!!!!!! Seeing it live was one of the best days of my childhood!!!! And, please note, back in the day, STEM was not really high on the curriculum but learning Broadway songs sure was!!! Fast forward to today. We are so fortunate to live so close to the city, where you can see a show almost every night. I still get so excited for every show. Broadway will be back and it will be better than ever…But today, our book club choice is incredible. Right now it is only available for pre-order but if you are a broadway lover, like me, you will want to get Singular Sensation (love this title): The Triumph of Broadway. by Michael Ridel. Until the lights go back on, here is the story:
The extraordinary story of a transformative decade on Broadway, featuring gripping behind-the-scenes accounts of shows such as Rent, Angels in America, Chicago, The Lion King, and The Producers—shows that changed the history of the American theater -Amazon.com

Watching new shows on TV or online is a great way to pass time and relax after work or school. Media can provide a much-needed escape from the reality of the real world. If you’re an avid tv consumer, you probably keep your eyes peeled for new, exciting shows you can record, stream or watch live. Geoff Johns has developed and executively produced a new web TV series you should consider checking out. If you’re a big fan of action, adventure, and comic books, Stargirl is right up your alley. Here are three unusual facts about the show you may not know about this character.
Stargirl Has Some Big Shoes To Fill
Like a lot of comic book series, characters are connected, and storylines are developed because new people step in to fill new positions. Stargirl is linked to a much larger legacy and is simply continuing on the path of saving people and fighting evil. She’s following in the footsteps of Starman and the heroes that came after him. Another fun fact about Stargirl is she’s the first female to be a part of the legacy. Talk about girl power!
2. Her Staff is Super Important
Some superheroes have powers of their own, but Stargirl taps into her supernatural ability because of a powerful staff. Only a few heroes have had access to the staff, and the staff is responsible for giving her strength and superpowers to fight evil and do good. The staff can actually shift shapes, but Stargirl uses the weapon in staff form when she goes to battle. Her staff gives her an extra boost of power to fulfill her destiny.
3. Stargirl Wasn’t Her Original Name
Before Stargirl was born, she was known as the Star-Spangled Kid. In older days, she was a golden-age hero who was fighting off Nazis and stopping crime. The show goes into the relationship of her new stepfather who she isn’t a big fan of in the beginning. However, as time goes on, she grows to love her stepdad for reasons that far outweigh him being her dad. Instead, she realizes the supernatural power in her stepdad, too.
When you watch a new show, it’s easy to get caught up in what you see, but there’s a lot of caveats and facts that can be missed when you watch a show for the first time. These facts may be subtle, but they give a lot of context and backstory for a new show that’s worth checking out.
Spending time outdoors and relaxing with friends and family has become a way of life during this Pandemic. Why not transform your yard into a perfect space for entertaining your guests? Read on to find out how you can create a yard that’s always ready for a get together with family and friends.
Create an Entertaining Area
To make the most of spending time outside in your yard, it is a great idea to create an inviting space for entertaining guests. Adding an attractive patio to your backyard will make your yard look great and provide a practical space for you to welcome your guests.
When adding a patio to your yard, it is crucial to choose patio builders that are experts at what they do to ensure that you have a high-quality patio that will last you for many years to come. Your builder will work with you to help you select the best materials for your patio and a design that will help you make the most of your space. One of the great things about a patio is that it provides a low maintenance area of your garden that stays looking great with very little effort.
Choose Your Furniture
To make your yard a functional space for entertaining, you need the right furniture for the job. Choosing a furniture style that suits the look that you want for your space will help you to create a more attractive space with an added wow factor. There are so many different outdoor furniture styles to choose from, so you will be able to take your pick from a great variety of tables, chairs, loungers, and more. If you want to maximize the number of people you can seat without taking up too much space on your new patio, why not choose an outdoor corner suite. While choosing your furniture shade is also another thing to consider; so you may want to choose a parasol that coordinates with your furniture set at the same time.
Dine In Style
If you love to dine outdoors, why not treat yourself to some new outdoor cooking equipment for your new entertaining space? Choosing a new barbecue is the perfect excuse to get your friends over for an evening of tasty grilled food under some heat lamps. If you feel like something a little different from a barbecue, how about mixing things up a little bit with an outdoor pizza oven? Everyone loves wood-fired pizza!
Add Decorative Finishing Touches
Once your new patio has been completed and you have chosen your outdoor furniture, it is time to complete your new entertaining space with some finishing touches. You could add some color with some container plants in bright pots and use year round outdoor plants like small evergreen trees, which will last throughout the winter.
Once the finishing touches are complete, it is time to sit back, relax, and enjoy your new entertaining space!
