As some of you know, I try to regularly ask my husband, “How can I be a better wife to you?”

I’m talking about a literal shark.

For those of you who don’t know much about Omaha except that it is in the middle of the country and it has hosted the Men’s College World Series for more than 50 years, you may be surprised to hear that we have one of the best zoos in the country.

Posted on Tuesday, February 8th, 2011

My husband is an avid gardener and grows quite a few varieties of peppers. Last year, for the first time he grew Tabasco peppers, which are tiny, but obviously (as the name implies), very hot. At the end of the season, we dried some of them and recently I ground them into a powder for seasoning.

Sexual tension is a lot like that Tabasco powder. A little bit can bring amazing flavor and “wow!” Too much and everything is ruined… even painful.
