Lisa Frankenstein_Liza Soberano-Kathryn Newton

“Lisa Frankenstein” is a campy, comedy horror movie. Think “Edward Scissorhands” meets “Weird Science” with a dash of “Pretty in Pink.” For an ‘80s kid like me, I loved the fashion and music in this film directed by Zelda Williams. The look of the movie is really spot on, from the clothes and the jelly shoes to the crimped hair and using white out as nail polish. Kathryn Newton (“Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania”) nails her performance as … [Read more...]

Festive Chickpeas - sample box

Who doesn’t love to snack on munchies while watching an award show or a big football game? Personally, I love charcuterie boards, aka snack boards or grazing boards, because you can fill it with anything you want – from fruits, cheeses, meats and crackers. I was recently introduced to a crunchy, yummy chickpea snack from Festive Chickpeas that takes my cheese board to the next level! Festive Chickpeas have taken the humble chickpea and … [Read more...]

AREA15_1600 x 900_low res

Earlier this month, my family and I drove to Las Vegas for a quick weekend trip. My daughter had been wanting to check out Meow Wolf’s Omega Mart for the longest time, and we finally had the opportunity to visit. In addition to Omega Mart, AREA15 houses several different attractions and experiences (axe throwing, indoor golf, zip lining, etc.). To say that stepping into Omega Mart is like ‘a fever dream’ is an understatement. When you … [Read more...]

Shirley Scopelitis - Scope Locations

As a pop culture enthusiast, I’m fascinated by the filmmaking process. Chalk it up to when I was younger, and I worked as an extra (aka background actor) during college. While waiting around on set, I enjoyed watching all of the behind-the-scenes production workers. Fast forward to the present day and as I was watching a movie at home, I turned to the featurette on the production crew, one who happened to be a locations manager. I’ve always … [Read more...]
