I don’t know about you, but it’s been a week for me. I’m tired. Car troubles. Happy toddler moments. Sad toddler moments. Tantrums. Breakdowns. And we even threw in Daylight Savings Time. Almost every day this week I’ve been saying by dinnertime, “I need a […]
A Noise Within has been taking risks and walking the talk for over three decades. The beloved professional theatre company in Pasadena is taking a break from the usual likes of Shakespeare and classical theatre this spring. Or are they? Stephen Sondheim and Hugh Wheeler’s […]
Who was Marilyn Monroe? It’s a question the world has had since she took Hollywood by storm in the 1950s. Marilyn is timeless, mysterious, and gorgeous. Yet on the flip side, lonely, isolated, and empty. Did she truly have it all? Who were her friends? […]
This past Valentine’s Day, Mabel and I headed to Westfield in Century City. As hard as it was to distract her from the American Girl and LEGO stores, we were on a mission. We were there to visit the Pixi Beauty Boutique and experience their […]
The Aquarium of the Pacific has been a Los Angeles staple for over 25 years. I remember when this groundbreaking institution opened in Long Beach. Although my visits to aquariums are limited (I still need to see Monterey), the Aquarium of the Pacific has many […]
I’m baaaack. It’s been a while since an installment of Wine Women Wednesday. I’m thrilled to introduce some fresh and new faces in 2024. Kicking off this return is Stephanie Franklin, founder and CEO of Fly Wines. Fly Wines launched less than a year ago. […]
I don’t know about you but I’m missing the holiday season. This was the first year so much of it “clicked” with Mabel and it truly was magical to see Christmas through her eyes. One of our favorite activities this year was looking for houses […]
As much as I love browsing Target, I still try to support local whenever possible. Knowing my dollar is going to help a small business always feels more rewarding. I was in shopping heaven when I arrived in South Carolina’s Downtown Greenville. Not only is […]
There are 48 towns in the USA named Greenville. I was lucky enough to visit South Carolina’s and overwhelmed with how fun this city is. One of Greenville’s highlights? The friendly array of gluten-free options throughout their incredible food scene. Downtown Greenville alone has over […]
My diet has drastically changed over the years. Living in Southern California, I admit that I certainly can take things for granted. Organic this, cold-pressed that. During my short time in Philadelphia, there was no lack of excellent food. I even found a Whole Foods […]
The holiday season is officially here and I couldn’t be happier. I love everything about Christmastime. The lights, trees, characters, festivities, and especially seeing the magic through the eyes of my Mabel. When we were invited to check out the opening night of Lightscape at […]
Before this past October, I’d been to LEGOLAND California twice. The funniest part is, it was well before I had my Mabel. I didn’t even go either time with a child. When my birthday was rolling around last month, I knew I wanted a quick […]
