By Allison Roberts Verified| The Martha's Vineyard Times Verified Yesterday I was attempting to open a new bag of espresso beans. It was a massacre. This wasn’t my first rodeo, though. I’ve been battling bullheaded packages for years. Last summer I saw an image of delectable-looking veggie kabobs on social media, and got the lofty idea that I’d like to grill, so I bought metal kabob skewers. Though I love a well-executed exaggeration, I am not blowing smoke when I say that I nearly cut my finger off trying to free them from their plastic prison.
By Allison Roberts Verified| The Martha's Vineyard Times Verified I’m not sure if there was an official “Bring a Kid to Work Day” in 1973, but when I was 8 years old, my dad, Richard Roberts, brought me to the art department of the Democrat & Chronicle (D&C) newspaper in Rochester, N.Y. Dad worked as an artist, and eventually as the art director. I felt immensely proud seeing his art published in the paper.
