On March 18, 2012, Zuill Bailey gave a recital at Spokane’s St. John’s Cathedral of the first three Suites for Solo Cello by J.S. Bach. Many in the audience realized that we were present at something out of the ordinary. To be sure, the playing was very good – wonderful, really – but there was more than that: Bailey was playing quite deliberately for us, determined that we feel the majesty, sweetness and sorrow in that music as powerfully and completely as he did.

It’s 6:15 p.m. on a chilly March evening, and she’s perched in the seats of a tiny downtown Washington theater. There’s a side of fries, but she’s saving some of them to dunk into the witches’ brew: a concoction consisting of a High Noon (“Surprise me on the flavor,” she tells her stage manager), Snoop-Dogg-branded rosé and sour gummy worms.

Dear Annie: My best friend, “Sarah,” and I have been close since college, but lately, our friendship feels one-sided. She’s going through a rough time; a breakup, she hates her job and she’s been struggling with anxiety. I’ve been there for her every step of the way, listening to her vent, offering advice and checking in on her regularly. But when I need support, she’s nowhere to be found.

Japanese culture has introduced many excellent food products and dishes to America’s culinary palate. Most of us are familiar with surimi (imitation crab and lobster), ramen noodles, the hungry college student’s best friend, and its convenient variant, Cup Noodles. Thank you, Nissin, but bring back the dried egg cubes that once enticingly adorned every cup of noodles when we opened it.
