Suzanne Moshenko

I have a very vain confession to make–recently I have become kind of obsessed with becoming the most famous Suzanne Broughton. According to Google, I am not. I am the first Suzanne Broughton to come up in a search, from a photo of me and Larry when he won Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the […]

I love Nora Ephron. She’s an aclaimed screenwriter (When Harry Met Sally, Sleepless in Seattle, You’ve Got Mail and Silkwood), essayist and author. Her novel, Heartburn, an autobiography about her messy divorce, was turned into a movie with Meryl Streep playing the part of her. Please watch this clip of Nora’s clever speech at the […]

We just finished dog-sitting Aaron’s dog Kaya. Aaron went on a 10 day tromp through Prague, Austria and Germany, only to return to find what I had done to his (what I believe is) lack-of-female-influence dog. Poor girl needed to get dolled up a little. (notice the mani-pedi) Pretty sure he won’t ever let us […]

Armed with our Mapquest map, Larry and I drove across Orange County to a small restaurant on top of a hill to attend a benefit dinner. We were late, way late, and I hate being late. I pride myself on being on time, so much so, that if I am on time, in my mind, […]

I am completely over the whole Skull and Crossbones phenomenon; on my kid’s fruit snacks, on flags flying high above RV’s at Huntington State Beach, on dog T-shirts and (gasp!) on a silk scarf I found today at J.Crew (curses). From now on, unless you are a true pillaging pirate, or a bottle of poison […]

Marisa, from one of my favorite blogs, Creative Thursday, is now going to put us in the mood for fall……. She is enormously talented and very sweet. She, also, loves Annie. Such a small blogging world.

I have never heard anyone from Orange County ever refer to it as “The OC.” I think it is much like when I lived in San Francisco and someone would call it “Frisco.” That person would be instantly marked as a poser and passed over at any social function. Aside from French Canadian tourists and […]

When it comes to getting “things done” I am arguable the least motivated person you have ever met. By “things done,” I mean “things” I don’t want to do. For instance, if I have to fold the whites (which I totally hate to do) I have to trick myself into doing it by saying, “just […]
