Only days remain to see Ukranian-born Valentin Popov’s boundary pushing reworkings of Orthodox Russian iconography at the Long Beach Museum of Art. Don’t despair, however, if you can’t make it. The museum always has something wonderful going, along with free admission every Friday.

Happiness Between Tails blog/podcast speaks to and from the heart. It connects lovers — of pets, authors, reading — and of my still-unreleased novels. “Flamenco + the Sitting Cat” and “Tango + the Sitting Cat,” are my love letters to all who fear they're too odd, too damaged, too old, too whatever to find love and happiness with or without a partner.

Many years ago my husband and I saw the work of Sam Maloof, a fabulously talented wood craftsman, at this museum. We’d go several times a year to see whatever exhibition was there. I like its intimacy. And I note that the museum is featuring the work of an immigrant!
