Searching for Home - with My Peeps!

Libbie Stellas and her daughter - larger>>

When Libbie Stellas' daughter left for college, Libbie found herself feeling the empty nest acutely. So Libbie decided to take an ambitious, extended trip. Before she left, a friend gave her a box of candy Peeps. Libbie took photos of herself, and of the candies, as they traveled the United States. By the end of her trip, long after the first box of Peeps had melted, Libbie figured out what was really important to her.

Listener Follow-Up - May I Take your Order?

John Wootton

Dick recently spoke with Rodolfo Acevedo, an architect from Argentina who worked in a restaurant when he first arrived in the U.S. John Wootton heard the interview, and felt we had demeaned waitering.

As he tells Dick, John deals with the best and worst in people. Families who refuse to speak to each other at the table. A porn producer so rude no other waiter will serve him. Yet it's also a job which allows him to make people happy. John makes his living - and it's a good one, he assures Dick - at an upscale steakhouse in Coral Gables, Fla.
