#EatDrinkThink with Cheeky Paper Products!

Posted on November 10, 2015 | Filed Under: Social Good | Tags: Cheeky Paper Products, Eat Drink Think, Feeding America, social good | Leave a Comment

Who knew that a product that is used in my household on a weekly basis would be so revolutionary? To be honest with you, when I first saw Cheeky paper plates at Target, I thought wow, what cute patterns but I'll just stick with my "XYZ brand" of paper plates. Then I saw a cool Cheeky product photo on Instagram. That got me into researching their Twitter & Facebook page, only to discover that while their product is of primary importance, it is … [Read more...]

Memoirs That I Love – November 2015 Edition

Posted on November 8, 2015 | Filed Under: Books, Pop Culture | Tags: Andy Cohen, Jillian Lauren, Joe Zee | Leave a Comment

One of the great things about reading a good book, especially with memoirs is that it transports you back in time & gives you the  ability to experience what life was like for the author during that time period of the book. There are three memoirs that I've enjoyed recently & I think perhaps you will too! While it's no secret that I enjoy watching TV, my first love as a child was reading books & getting immersed in a world that was … [Read more...]

Seal’s New Album “7” Drops Today!

Posted on November 6, 2015 | Filed Under: Books, Pop Culture | Tags: Seal "7", Seal musician, Trevor Horn | Leave a Comment

When I first heard Seal’s music back in the early 90s, I was just starting college & still rocking the big hair (not sure why). I played those two CDs (“Seal” & “Seal II”) to death! Since then, he has released many more albums. The last two recent ones “Hits” & “Commitment and Soul 2” were so-so in my book. That’s why I am super excited to review his new “7” album that releases today, November 6th! It is a true return to … [Read more...]

Journey to Space: Exhibition and 3D Film at CA Science Center

Posted on November 3, 2015 | Filed Under: Local Events | Tags: California Science Center, Journey to Space 3D Movie, Los Angeles Space Shuttle Exhibits | 7 Comments

There was a time when my parents were younger & space travel was very new. Then in July 1969, Neil Armstrong landed on the moon! Fast forward to present day & the recent discovery of water on Mars. Even ordinary civilians are contemplating traveling to Mars so it is no wonder that the journey to space is more of a common occurrence then it was back in my parents day! The California Science Center, located in downtown Los Angeles, … [Read more...]

Bridget Wilder: Spy-in-Training {Book Review}

Posted on October 30, 2015 | Filed Under: Books, Pop Culture | Tags: author Jonathan Bernstein, Bridget Wilder, children's books | 2 Comments

As a mother of an elementary school-aged girl, I’m very conscious of the type of messages that are out there in the pop culture atmosphere. The animated movies that I grew up with usually focused on a damsel in distress, waiting for her prince to come rescue her or to wake her up from a deep sleep with a special kiss. This is not the type of message that I’d like reinforced in my daughter & thankfully children’s movies as of late have very … [Read more...]
