The other night while having dinner we could hear the young kids that live in the house behind us playing and yelling in the yard. It’s been several years since their family moved in and Carlos noted that one of the boys’ voice had deepened since those first times we’d heard them while the younger son still had a high-pitched scream.

I told Carlos he still had that howler monkey shriek and could out-wail that little boy any day of the week; he screamed “I do not have a howler money voice” so loudly he broke three widows in the kitchen.

Okay, maybe he didn’t break them but you could actually see them vibrating to his shrieks.

Erika Kirk still crying and railing and raising coins about people making jokes about her racist dead husband. I get it, he’s your husband, but why the Walmart knockoff version of Janet Jackson's Rhythm Nation drag?

Now that’s offensive.

This is the wildest thing I ever saw … cakes in the cake aisle looking at cakes. Happy to help indeed!

Stop what you’re doing right now and Google why chainsaws were invented. No, seriously, go … now … Google.

You’re welcome.

Speaking of Charlie Kirk, I learned this week that he had a hot sauce he’d been marketing, though it’s only available at ONE store in Naples, Florida.

But it gave me an idea: with Boebert officially declared a loser maybe she should market the Boebert Dry Rub.*

Architecture Wednesday: 26 Queen Street

Welcome to the heart of Charleston South Carolina’s historic French Quarter and discover 26 Queen Street, a fully restored townhouse built in the 1790s and located in the sought-after Johnson’s Row. Mere yards from iconic landmarks like Dock Street Theatre, the Huguenot Church, and St. Philip’s Church, this exceptional property blends 18th-century charm with modern luxury across nearly 4,000 square feet of living space. 

The 3,000-square-foot main house welcomes you through an arched entryway with an antique iron gate, leading into elegant interiors with tall ceilings, original hardwood floors, and historic mantels. The unpainted cypress-paneled dining room is believed to be the last of its kind in Charleston while the updated modern kitchen features brands like Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances. 

Upstairs, the spacious primary suite occupies one floor and includes a cedar closet, wood-burning fireplace, and luxurious full bath, in addition to a very comfortable office—or additional bedroom—with a balcony overlooking the gardens or it could become a generous dressing room for any true collector of couture. On the third floor is a private spacious guest bedroom and luxurious en suite bathroom.

Back down on the main floor, you walk across the private gardens to enter the nearly 1,000-square-foot detached guest house that offers a living area and kitchen with two bedrooms and a full bath on the second floor all with views of St. Philip’s churchyard, abundant natural light; it’s ideal for visitors or additional rental potential.

All fireplaces have been updated to be compatible with gas, chimneys relined, and dampers replaced. Other features include original 18th-century doors with custom graining, all-new electrical, a sump pump system tied to city drainage, and newer HVAC systems for year-round comfort. In addition, the home is set in an X flood zone, this property requires no flood insurance.

So, relax in the lush Charleston courtyard gardens and own a piece of Charleston’s rich heritage—beautifully reimagined for modern living while preserving its timeless charm and authenticity. It recently sold for $3.9 million.
