We started our foggy morning with breakfast at the hotel and then a quick drive through Queen Anne to get one last glimpse of the city. Totally unnecessary to see that view AGAIN, but it was still nice to briefly explore one more area before we headed out. At that point, we still had a couple…
The vacation Gods smiled down upon us. With a blessing, a little luck, and some blackout hotel curtains, all of us slept in until like 9:00 on our second day of vacation. A Festivus miracle! — rise and shine! — We wanted to get out of the hotel at a reasonable hour, mostly to fit as many meals as we could…
We wanted to get out of L.A. for a second. We were basically just seeking some cooler weather, to be honest with you. Yes, that could have been as simple as our annual drive up to San Francisco, but I was getting the itch and the urges. You know… to go somewhere new. See something different. Cross something…
I wanted to touch briefly on how much we loved our hotel in Seattle. Normally we stay with Marriott. It’s just a safe bet pretty much everywhere, ya know? Nothing fancy, but we trust the brand. And they are everywhere. But in Seattle – damn, they were expensive. Down by the waterfront was over $300/night the…
What an insane week it’s been. Insane in the best way possible, I mean. Last Sunday, Paul and I had a date night to see Elton John at the Staples Center. We were so far away, in the second to last row, we now know what he would look like from outer space. And I’ll tell you,…
I have 3 hot yoga classes under my belt now, but a few of those poses terrify me. Headstands, handstands, frickin LOTUS. Owwwwwie. But for some unexplained reason, I really enjoy the weekly practice. I have to say, my husband’s “vacation” so far as been overwhelmingly… underwhelming. Poor guy got sucked back into work, so it hasn’t been much…
Anyone else feel like it’s just never going to be cold again here in LA? I’ve worn shorts non-stop since February. I really hope to be eating my words come Christmas time. My attention span has gotten so bad, and I’ve gotten so used to interruptions, I can only get through about 30 minutes of a movie…
DAD! DAD! DAD! Eat! Dad! Eat! EAT! EAT! Mom. Mom! MOM! EAT!!! That would be the sound of sweet Stevie first thing in the morning. Cue me, burying my head under as many pillows as I can find, trying to drown out the nagging. Paul and I roll over and give each other the look. We…
Nothing motivates me to eat my fruits and veggies like a weekend of debauchery. I came home from Palm Springs and ate healthy for like a whole day! Sometimes I take the local streets with the speed bumps because it always makes Stevie laugh. He giggles in the back seat and shouts “Mo-om!” with each thump.…
A few months back, I posted about this magical mascara that lengthens your lashes by 300%. It sounds absurd, but it’s a real thing. And I still love it. So when a rep from Younique asked if I’d like to try some additional products? Well, you bet I jumped at the chance. I’m honestly not…
