It’s Valentine’s Week-the week of LOVE. In case you missed it on the CBS Early Show, here are some of my ideas for cute ways to feel the love and make Valentine’s Day fun with the gorgeous Julie Chen.

Are you ready for some football?! This Sunday people all across the United States, whether they’re football fans or not, will kick back for what has become an unofficial national holiday. The first ever Super Bowl was played in 1967, and was so named by Lamar Hunt, then owner of the Kansas City Chiefs, after [...]

Tomorrow, people all across the United States (and Canada!) will be eagerly awaiting the meteorological prediction of a certain famous rodent. Punxsutawney Phil also stars alongside Bill Murray and Andie MacDowell in the 1993 movie Groundhog Day, in which Murray’s cynical weatherman is forced to live the same February 2nd over and over again.

New Year’s Eve FUN.
Here comes a new decade! If you’re in NYC (or want to stream live), I’ll be dropping by the Joan Hamburg radio show on WOR710 radio Monday, Dec. 27th, at 12:15 p.m. when one of my all-time favorites, the fantastic Lis Wiehl sits in at the mic for Joan. We’ll [...]
