My kids and I went to this far-off place called Yorba Linda on Monday to visit Marcy from The Glamorous Life. It was the first time our kids had met each other and they all got along swimmingly (which they did for about 1/2 hour as well–swim). Just in case you were wondering what two […]
Confession No. 9 : The Slip
I wore my seven-year-old daughter’s slip all day today without ever realizing it. This is embarrassing because: a.) My daughter is the one who pointed it out to me. I didn’t even notice, though I was readjusting all day. b.) I think I’m the only girl over ten-years-old who even wears a slip anymore. What […]

My appearance on Daybreak OC
Here is the clip of my appearance on Daybreak OC, Orange County’s very own morning news program. It’s on KDOC from 6 am to 8 am, Monday through Friday. I watch it every morning, which is part of the reason why I was so nervous. Shally Zomorodi made me feel so comfortable and relaxed. If […]
Come as you are…seriously, don’t reapply
I have been reading Mindy at The Mommy Blog for an entire week now. Now, some of you will hear “The Mommy Blog” and instantly think there will be posts about needlessly meticulous and overcomplicated crafts, thirty-four step recipes involving saffron, and a story about how she breast fed while pushing her double stroller across […]
I’m doing practically everything but type the words for you
I love the fact that I can make iMixes. It’s just another way I can be bossy and impose my own personal–and sometimes questionable- taste onto you. This kind of reminds me of one of one of those things I think I am very talented at, but later realize I was only acceptable at best. […]
Exposing Legoland “hidden” Theme Vlog #2
Another vlog I’ve put together chronicling my family’s trip to Legoland in San Diego. …and yes, I do use the word “Plethora.” Every big word I know, I learned from a Steve Martin movie (Watch the Three Amigo’s “Plethora” scene here.)

My Friend Karen’s Pet and House Sitting
(Painting of my critters by the phenomenal Marisa at Creative Thursday.) My friend Karen pet and house sits in the Orange County area. If you are looking for someone you can trust with your precious critters and your mail and what-not, Karen is your gal. I give my whole-hearted stamp of approval to Aunt Karen. You […]
What I can’t Stop Listening To Now: Eva Cassidy
Most people haven’t heard of Eva Cassidy, her stunning voice and tragic life have largely gone unnoticed in the United States. She has become one of my favorite singers and I think you will be truly moved by her life and music. It will take some time. Here is an old Nightline “Encore” presentation of […]
