Holiday 101 – My Survival Guide

Vital Juice asked me some great questions about how to survive the season a little jollier… Consider it your Holiday First Aid Kit.

Holidays – Gifting 101

I stopped by WGN-TV in Chicago to help host Steve Sanders with his holiday list. Check it out here. Three gifting DON’Ts: #1 DON’T give a fruitcake unless its a gag gift. #2. DON’T give anything that poops or pees. #3 DON’T just throw it in a gift bag. Three gifting DO’s: #1. [...]

Life 101 – Halloween candy

Halloween is a dentist’s favorite holiday. Why? Would you believe that over $2 billion is spent each year on Halloween candy?! That’s a whole lot of scary cavities.

Life 101 – Swimming Back

Am back from a fun vacation–an amazing journey with Capt. Geoffrey on Dolphin Expeditions–in which I went swimming with dolphin and ended up swimming with sharks!

Life 101 – Back in the U.S.A.

Since we last spoke, I’ve been to Asia and back. There’s some gossip about it in NY Daily News’ Gatecrasher today. While abroad, I can report that I didn’t hear a word of debt ceiling talk, but I’m happy to be back in the U.S.A. eating in restaurants that don’t feature shark fin, snake, [...]

Gossip! – Barb back to the Tank

Good luck to my friend Barbara Corcoran as she heads back to Hollywood for next season’s taping of Shark Tank! (In this self-portrait, we’re in a pedicab in Central Park headed to lunch… But for the record, she’s the only person I know who regularly has business meetings in the back of a pedi-cab.) [...]
