Nearly a year ago one of my beloved college roommates had her first baby. We live across the country from each other now so I wasn’t there to bring over dinner and hold the baby so she could take a nap after a week straight of sleepless nights. But we could text message. At any and all hours we could text… Read more →

Attack Of The Sugar Zombie

I had a really good time making this, and I hope you guys will give it a watch. Also, I hope you guys will take the time to click… Read more →
It’s Purgeday Thursday, But This Post Has Nothing To Do With That.
Sometimes I pinch myself because I have a really fun job. I don’t know what my job is exactly these days, so I try to sum it up as “Storytelling” because Blog Posting, Screenwriting, Book Writing (did I tell you I’m working on a book about the psychology of Hair? Oh, we’ll have to get in to that sometime because… Read more →

Mama A and Baby Bea
Amy and I shared a bedroom for a year and an apartment for two more and now she’s the cutest Brooklyn Mama you ever did see. I feel lucky that despite our distance I get to see her and her little family as often as I do, because I love them all to pieces. Read more →
Sweet Little Lies
It’s no secret my girl is tempestuous. So, there are a couple of areas in which my formerly go-with-the-flow laid back husband and I have had to institute a “zero tolerance” policy with little miss Dee. Namely hitting. The girl hits peers, dogs, and full-grown adult men indiscriminately and without warning…not to mention me…in my face…it’s like she took the… Read more →

The Mom Who Travels
It was in January 2011 when I was faced with leaving Delilah over night for the first time. Scott and I had already made plans to meet Paul and Cariann at Alt Summit towards the end of the month when I was invited by an automotive company to visit their headquarters and take a spin around their race track.

Somebody’s Got a Case of the Mondays.
Or maybe I just don’t want the weekend to end. Weekdays make my head hurt. Friday night I had dinner at SoHo House with one brilliant old friend and met some brilliant new friends. I got all dressed up and felt very fancy. I ate a cheeseburger in my silk dress while discussing ancient amazonian therapies and billionaire psyches. Friends… Read more →
Park Etiquette and Picking Up Mom Friends
It’s one of those things there should be a book about. In the hospital, they show you how to get a good latch and change a diaper, but they don’t say boo about the challenges you’ll be met with as you and your little one venture out to the local park. First off there are the basic questions. Are you… Read more →
