It had been a while since the Food with Friends gang last gathered to break bread and deliver our monthly column. These past seven months (which have felt more like nine years) have forced us to adapt to a no contact, no gathering, no hugging way of life that we, as humans, are certainly not used to.

One of my favorite genres of film is the thriller and suspense movie. For me, horror films never seem to deliver on their promised scares, but a thriller and suspense tale can usually keep me firmly glued to the edge of my seat. Of course, nobody could make a suspense movie like the great Alfred Hitchcock.

I love contributing to this edition of Signature Magazine because I have three degrees and lots of memories from Southern Miss. I have flown many miles on the back of that Golden Eagle!

We are living in strange times. Social gatherings have been greatly reduced or canceled, masks have become a common accessory, and anxiety is at an all-time high. Our lives in the year 2020 have been upended, and we are realizing just how much we took our basic freedoms and privileges for granted.
