Okay, okay… imagine you’re a kid and you open the door to THIS! (It’s my ultimate last minute Halloween costume that beautifies while horrifies.) Let’s call it the spa package: facial, head wrap, and robe. It took me all of three minutes and is giving me HOURS of FUN! (But will they accept me [...]

One of my greatest childhood Halloween memories (besides winning the local costume contest as a dog catcher) is opening our door to the “Trick or Treat” of a golden-aged couple wearing Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia masks. “Aren’t you a little old for this?” my dad asked the pair. Luke and Leia shook their [...] So, Halloween is one week from today. And… I’m sure you have your costume, right? Okay, okay. Calm down. Let me think…. The whole costume thing came from the tradition of Celtic young men dressing up in white costumes to humor evil spirits. So, blame them. Life 101 question is: Are you going to [...] Butter up. Last week, I reported that Maxim magazine got butter in its eye and named Paula “It’s a party, y’all” Deen its hottest female TV chef.

Had several realizations while underwater: 1) Life is sometimes happily unpredictable. 2) Our planet is a truly incredible place. 3) Blackberry’s and computers don’t work in the [...] I’ve just finished my new book… and am off to swim with wild dolphin! Yes, I’m taking a vacation! Yee haw. Be back in a week. So, to keep yourself busy, why don’t you read a book. How about Shark Tales? ABC Shark Tank star Barbara Corcoran tells how she turned $1000 into a [...] Exhaustion. I’m on deadline for my new book and feel like a mama pig’s teat. I’m so tired I just put shaving cream on my toothbrush. Airline security. I just flew back from the Midwest and I’ll tell you airline travel isn’t getting any easier. This week a Salt Lake City man, who after [...] Don’t call me. A week into the school year and Little Jimmy’s teacher had to call his mom to tell her that Little Jimmy was misbehaving. “Wait a minute,” Mommy said. “I had Jimmy for three months and I never called you once when he misbehaved!” Lawn chair scare. Last month, after her [...] |
