I’ll be reading this post tonight at the small theatre in Anaheim Hills for BlogUP. There’s still room if you want to come to the show. About fifteen minutes before this breathtaking sunset, I stood next to three people at the bottom of a small hill in Laguna Beach. It was an older couple–same age […]
The Kite Song
This is a kite that waved and the confetti that floated above Disneyland’s Main Street during a ceremony for two Disney legends– Richard and Robert Sherman. Two pretty remarkable men you’ve probably never heard of, but who wrote the soundtrack to many of your childhood memories. You can read my full story here. ***** While […]
The Sherman Brothers get their own window Disneyland
Next time you’re walking down Disneyland’s Main Street, instead of focusing on the Castle in front of you or the art, t-shirts and gifts that fill shops, look up at the names on the second and third story windows. There is a real person behind each one. A real Disney legend. Having a Main […]
Best Shot Monday: Anaheim Ducks
The theme for Tracey Clark’s Best Shot Monday this week is “I **heart** These Faces” and I easily chose this one of Anaheim Ducks players, Teemu Selanne, Jason Blake, Saku Koivu and a boy who is receiving treatment for cancer at CHOC Hospital. I took the photo last night while I was doing a […]
Lunch with a friend
It’s one of those funny ironies in life that one of the most important aspects of our lives, one of the biggest blessings, one of the things you treasure the most–friendships–usually spring from seemly insignificant experiences, inane common interests or sometimes just dumb luck. The first friend I ever made online, right after I started […]
Coming into Bloom
Every week the insanely talented photographer and writer Tracey Clark hosts “Best Shot Monday.” She picks a theme and we post a photo on that theme. I edited this photo last night after snapping a shot of some cherry blossoms peppered with raindrops in Brea. Then I waited for Tracey to pick her theme this […]
‘Butterflies and zebras and moonbeams and fairy tales’
Emily and I fooling around today on the lawn. This song came on in her room as she was falling asleep and I was editing the photo. It’s like a child’s lullaby when you look at it that way and if you know Emily, it’s the perfect song for her. Little Wing Well she’s walking […]
Sex doesn’t sell at Target. Here’s why.
You can tell a lot about a trend or product by checking out the clearance aisle of Target. You can see that a certain type of battery-powered toy dog that barked constantly wasn’t a big seller or coconut lip gloss or Star Wars curling irons. I like to stalk the “loser” section because sometimes I […]
“Mini-Weapons of Mass Destruction” at must for boys
When I bought my six-year-old, Ben, the book, "Mini Weapons of Mass Destruction" it was one of those moments when you think, "This is either one of the stupidest things I've done as a mom, or one of best. *Spoiler Alert* It was one of the best. As I whipped out my wallet at B & […]
I’m sorta sad to hear J.D. Salinger died today
“I’m the most terrific liar you ever saw in your life. It’s awful. If I’m on my way to the store to buy a magazine, even, and somebody asks me where I’m going, I’m liable to say I’m going to the opera. It’s terrible.” Holden Caulfield Twenty five years after reading this […]
