Happy Saturday, Reader! I woke up this morning to a flurry of emails from women who are new to going gray.

But rather than just write out my whole life story here, I thought it would be fun to play 2 Truths and a Lie. Remember that game?...

Hello Reader, A few years ago, a friend of mine had a weird incident at her workplace. My friend (let's call her "Fiona") was a producer on a very popular national talk show.

Those books were entertaining, but they were also instructive as Nancy was a good role model as she exuded self-sufficiency. One thing that always struck me was that Nancy always kept a fully-packed suitcase in the trunk of her coupe. If I remember...
