All that glitters…

Published on December 1, 2010

Tweet I got absorbed in unpacking and sorting through souvenirs from our trip this morning and had the revelatory moment one has when one realizes their three year old has been waaaaay too quiet. This was found to be very true, as causing my floors and furniture to sparkle like Emerald City takes some concentration. […]

Free time and freak out in the ‘hood

Published on October 20, 2010

A Mom’s view: Yoko Ono at the PBS Press Tour

Published on August 15, 2010

Tweet I was initially invited by the amazing folks at PBS to their annual fall press tour to get a preview of their new kids’ programming. I LOVED the new shows and will tell you all about them before they air. I have to say, though, that being invited to sit about fifteen feet from […]


Diving into Movies and seeing stars at the Beverly Hilton

Published on August 4, 2010

Tweet Some things are quintessential Beverly Hills, and those are the things I really enjoy. Watching television and movies as a child gave me a certain perception of what it would be like here – glamorous, fun, festive, tropical, with star watching.
