It’s no secret – if it’s in the Brown Food Group, I love it. I believe my BFF made up that food classification in honor of yours truly. And what is in said Brown Food Group you may ask? Yup – anything “bready” and baked and bad for you in excessive quantities. […]
This year has flown by. It seems that just a year ago I was setting up the Christmas tree and beginning the flurry of activities that happen in December. Christmas is my favorite holiday and I tend to go a little overboard. (Probably because I had no Christmas when I was little, but that’s a […]
So I like to take pictures. My family hates it. I’m the one at all events with a camera slung around her neck saying, “Hold it. Let me get a picture.” Followed by moans and groans and rumbling of discontent. My little guy has resorted to “ruining” every picture by making a funny face. Who […]
I really need an extra hour in my day. I mean, it’s October and there are a ton of new fall television shows for me to get sucked into. Have you started watching any cool new shows this season? In years past, I couldn’t wait for the special TV Guide Fall Preview issue. I’d read […]
Owning a dog is a learning experience and an exercise in extreme patience. We have an eight-month-old Portuguese Water Dog. Porties are hypo-allergenic, active, sweet natured and lovable dogs.

Today is bittersweet. I am lucky to be a mom to two wonderful kids, who spoiled me. Early this morning, while I went for a run, they went to the bagel shop to pick up one of my favorite breakfast foods – bagels of course. My amazing husband made bacon that melted in my mouth […]
Do you all watch The Voice? Well I’m participating in an event called “The Writer’s Voice”. Check out the skinny on Brenda Drake’s blog. In following the instructions, I need to post my query blurb and first 250 words on my blog. Yikes!! It’s going to be out there – for the whole world to […]
Magic Hour, the highly anticipated album from Scissor Sisters releases in the UK on May 14th and to the U.S. on June 5th. It’s kind of weird to me since they ARE from the U.S. But they do have that British Indie sound. Lucky for us in the States, they have some U.S. dates on […]
Going into this year I had the best intentions to write a blog post on a weekly (if not more often) basis. I had grand plans… a weekly post on music I love, including new-to-me artists and another on an interview with a fearless female athlete or another good role model for young women. And […]
